I like the creativity and mood of this image. I think its mood strongly matches your title. Sorry about the DQ, but sometimes the coolest images suffer that fate. I think this technique might be very useful in an Expert Editing challenge (like Steampunk).

Very nice bokeh! Also, I really like how this draws you in and invites you to interact with the horse.

I miss the Oregon coast. You've done a magnificent job of capturing one of her more mysterious moods - the mist just slightly obscuring the rocky coast. I especially like the parallelism between the main land and the right main rock. And the solitary couple just adds a presence to the image.

Stunning Image. I especially like the color of the sky - not your typical blue or grey, and the blue along the horizon on the right side is just stunning. Not to mention the lightning flash. Very nice, and well deserved.

Look at just the top 1/2 of the picture, then just at the bottom 1/2 - do you see how much different the feel is between the two? And nothing really ties the two together. This leaves the viewer feeling dissonance and probably with a tendency to dislike the photo.
The bottom half has some great lighting and glow in the hanging moss. The top half not so much.
I really, really like the bottom 1/2 of the picture - you've got some good things going...

Hey! First entry! Welcome to dpc!
This is a great place to explore and learn. Some of us (er... me) learn a bit slower than others, but...
Some suggestions on your entry:
As others mentioned, this is very grainy - which is OK if it was intentional and serves an important role in the image. It it does in this image, it is not obvious to the observer.
Crop - I find the light fixture in the hall distracting - it draws attention to itself, but does not appear to serve a purpose in the image. You probably could crop in a bit more on the right - enough to lose the light fixture - without hurting the image.
Great - the two ornaments, red with gold swirl lines and the plain gold one provide a strong focal point for the image, as well as a nice contrast to each other.
Don't worry too much about the score. This is a tough shot, probably in very low light - a challenge in anyone's book.

The partial bodies are the result of removing body parts of the adult(s) holding Moses, who at 6 months isn't quite able to sit up on his own. So, arms, hands, fingers, etc. I tried to patch things up as best I could, but evidently it wasn't good enough. I am open to suggestions on how to do that better...
