everyone else has already said a lot. With that, there are two bits I'd change if it was mine and I'd actually noticed them. 1: at the back near the center of the image, there's this wierd greyish rectangular shape with what looks to be golden leaves on top of it, kinda looks like a mushroom cloud to my eyyes... anyways, I'd nix it. 2: as per wolf's suggestion of adding mist or haze, i believe the effect would be conveyed well if the two trees in the far back (in front of that would-be mushroom cloud) weren't as visible as they are. If they were to be blown out by the light behind them, with only the subtlest hint that they exist, I feel t would be all the more powerful. ry
