kevin thanks for the comment but not sure what ur talking about..mood is the feel of an image, and either it has it or not..there's no such thing as "adding mood"..lol..and also, the inside of the flower is not visible to add splashes, but splashes are all over the flower..

But I think the image is moody, I feel sadness and hope at the same time... It's like a "light in the end of a tunnel"!
Beautiful image, author, GL!

I think this is nicely done, and I feel the mood here as well.

i rather like this one I like images that are different ;p they stand out amoung the normal... goodluck author.

Very nice work author...I would like to say,great color and fantastic mood...

you can definitely add mood! coloring, shading, texture and more all add mood. the rose looks to be in front of the rain, no rain is going across it at all . the ground in front of the rose has the rain streaks so that it makes the rose seem not part of the image. good luck, great idea!

Wow.. This image tells a story.. Good Work!

It’s a great atmospheric image…but I would have to agree the rose dose look like its sitting in front of the rain instead of “in the rain”

Thank u all for the comments!..lvstealth & Warlock, thanks for bringing that to my attention..not sure how the rose layer got on top of the rain layer..but its corrected now..

the layers have a way of magically getting shuffled! (happens to me too!) i think it is the "layers gremlin" comes and moves things when we arent looking!

The "Layers Gremlin" got to you guys too?!

Great image author! The rain looks great, and the shadow looks very natural. I can't say huge things about the originality factor, but it was executed really nicely. Good luck!

Like the rain splashes on the rose, very nice

I like the idea, but i feel like the whole image could;ve been executed a little better. You could try smaller stars at full opacity, and also try experimenting with different colours and blend modes for the solar flares. Good luck!

Haha, thanks for help, I'm lucky I saved the psd so I can re-edit it... Thanks again.

I confess I don't really understand this. I completely agree with ponti55, however. I would also observe that your gray additions to the pill assume that it's a cylindrical sausage when in fact it has a much more interesting shape with a flat band encircling it. A solar flare or two on the right side of the sun might add some balance.

To make it look more realistic, I would add some motion blur to the capsule (not too much though or you would distort the capsule too much)

I like it! I think it's pretty good! Nice job!

I would agree to the fact of giving a bit motion blur to the capsule...Also the opacity is kept higher for the stars is better as it gives a feel of DOF of the capsule and the stars and sun...Overall a nice effort.....

nice idea , gl author

There, It's fixed, if you would like something else added, leave a comment. Thanks for comments.

The solar flares still look extremely unconvincing, if you can't make them look more realistic, maybe remove them all together and simply have the capsule and the sun.

It's not the sun it's planet Earth in lava and fire! And those are not solar flares, those are powerful explosions, witch are dragging in!

nice effort.good luck.

hopefully......good luck
