I have nothing to offer from a technical stand point, other than the area in focus takes away from the overal soft feeling, see below.

To me this is a piece of art, so I will tell you what I like. The composition is fantastic, with the lower portion dominating the initial experience but supported by the moon (at least I view it as a moon). Very soothing, peaceful color with soft contrast. Very well done.

Cheers,

Ben

I like it. Reminds me of a poster I saw once. Good.

Is this a negative? I like the lower part but the dark blue blob (moon) spoils it for me - I'd have cropped it out - good luck

I think you conveyed the title well, but how did you get an oval moon?

Everything here seems a little too transparent for me...
