Since I'm not a professional photomanipulator, please see this critique as a share of my thoughts on this.
I like the overall impact of this piece. It looks dramatic and real at first glance, also thanks to your wise selection of colors (or better said, the lack of those). The integration of the water looks convincing, the wet walls of the buildings and the highlights on the surface of the flow add to that impression.
But speaking about lighting: If one looks at the buildings, it seems obvious that the original photograph must have been taken in daylight. This is indicated by the harshly contrasted shadows on them. Alright, of course, those shadows could be caused by another lighthing bolt that's not visible... but I guess that this wasn't the idea here e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s… " width="15" height="15" alt="
" title="
(Smile)" /> (sorry if my guess is wrong). Also, I find the bolts (the left one is nicely worked around the dome, by the way) somewhat distracting. What bothers me most about them is the fact that they do not seem to shed their bright light on any of the surfaces around!
Let me say this as a conclusion: It's always difficult to judge a photomanipulation. As I see it, some think of manipulation as a style of art, where only the impression matters. Others care about a certain degree of realism in the details, even if the content is surreal. I'm part of those "others", so excuse me if I sound uber-picky in this critique. The rest, is awesome e.deviantart.net/emoticons/n/n… " width="15" height="15" alt="

Darkness theme is usually real creative. The scene in a whole is pretty nice. I love the little details you added , like the light at the bottom and the detail in the water to the lightning on the top.One thing I seemed to notice is that for the rain it looks like you used a texture filter for that effect , I may be wrong and sorry if i am but it blends rather well indeed.Only thing I could possibly say to this piece is maybe a better enhancement of the depth of field and you got one really beautiful piece .

Najlepszy w twoich manipkach jest klimat. Nei wiem jak to robisz, że zawsze wychodzi on taki tajemniczy, ale spokojny. Bardziej mi się podobał ten wilkołak, bo tu nie ma jakiegoś głównego punktu zaczepienia, ale fajna praca

This is really great man..but the lightning really detracts from what is going on beneath. But yes you are improving for sure.

I agree, the lighting is unnecessary in my opinion. the rest is great!

ogólnie nie robi na mnie dużego wrażenia ale technicznie ładnie wykonane.
Takie strasznie nudne i deszcz monotonny.

Erik powiedzial co wiedzial xD
ogolnie mi sie podoba, tylko jest za spokojnie. wiesz, woda by mogla troche poniszczyc te domy. wtedy calosc miala by impact, a tak to jest... tak, spokojnie dosc. te pioruny tez nie wiadomo po co, wiele nie dzialaja, a i kompozycja sie psuje calosc jest fajna, zgrana kolorystycznie (akurat tu brakiem kolorow xD), kontrast/jasnosc i oswietlenie tez bardzo okej. chyba ci zabraklo checi albo pomyslu. w filmie 2012 to dopiero efekty zalewanego miasta maja impact (procz efektow caly film jest do dupy, nie polecam). stac cie na cos naprawde zajebistego, w koncu DD zobowiazuje

you are on your way try to be even more unique. Think of something fresh with an outstanding concept. I can't really give you helpful advice on that.
