I cannot BELIEVE I'm the first one to comment on this gorgeous, striking photo! It's absolutely wonderful! Truly dynamic, with a very magical aura and perfect composition/coloring. The mood is so rich, the textures great. Very, very nice!

  Thank you Nadya and Gary for your kind comments. I had some fun creating this image... but I keep wondering if I like the sun in the image. I love the moon, but not so sure about the sun...hmmm. I love playing with PS - it seems limited only by my imagination.

  Love the surreal quality to this smashing image, Diana! And if it were mine, I'd keep the sun because it balances the image. Might try making it a skritch smaller just to see, but it's great as is.

  Thanks, Kay! I also toyed with the idea of diffusing and softening the top part, but I could play with it forever! At some point, I need to say enough. It's hard to know when to say enough. Thanks for your advice on keeping the sun. I'll keep it! (And might try making it smaller).

  Thanks, again, Bill! This was created without the "flood filter". I created my own in PS. The flood filter makes it a lot easier!
