This is a cool shot but your subject is almost completely blown out by the flare.

This is one of my faves. I love that burst of light over the steeple. That and the stars make this a pretty cool picture.

Excellent shot. Im liking the lens flare a lot although perhaps the hot spot less so. Beautiful depth of colour in terms of both reds and blues. Good job

very pretty, but the light in the top left hand corner is a little distracting.

is that the moon?

I like how the ray of light is shinning down, but I don't like how on the top third of the photograph you see this big ball of light and leaves, but at the same time it makes it intristing

I Really like the concept, good picture all in all but the white specs (not sure what they are?) are quite distracting.

And with the light came conflict. This is a nice image but it does not evoke peace for me.
