I almost missed the girl near the bottom. I was sitting here trying to figure out how this met the challenge, then read your comments and only then noticed the girl. I think the problem was that she is too close to the door and a similar shape and color to really stand out as obvious in the photo. Now that I know the girl is there she is obvious to me.
I like the photo, and I think that it does show afterlife quite well with the semi transparent girl. I like how she looks to be staring at the star to the left of the photo.
The perspective of the photo is good, taken from low like this, but I don't like the way the building is leaning to the left. It's got a funny angle to it.
There is a strange rainbow light to the right of the photo near the center. I'm not sure what caused that. Maybe another light source off to the right? Anyway, it stands out to me and creats somewhat of a distraction since it doesn't add anything to the photo in my opinion.
Focus and clarity are ok, parts look a little soft, but not to the point that it affects the overall photo much.
I think you did a good job on this, maybe lacking some visual 'wow', but overall a great effort for the challenge.

It is a great photo, the only thing I disliked was the flaring off the light.

Very atmospheric. I'm intrigued as to how this is achieved in camera with only basic editing. Please let us know your methodology after votings finished.

Interesting with the life form. Looks like you tried to just get an impression of it. The other subject is nice but will it be in the 'after'?
