I got some suggestions for you. try and make the crystals a bit less reflective. I don't know if you're working with 3D or what, but if you can, make the highlights on them less bright (more transparent) and bump up the refraction effect. This way the ones in front refract around the images of the ones behind them.

Then the lightrays. Great idea, but try to make them sharper.

Then take the background collor and tone it down a lot more. Much closer to black.

Perhaps this will get the reults you're looking for.... or not.

this is important, i am the same way... this is too much. on the other hand it is fun to look at once i suggest putting a city in the center of the explosion but i doubt it is possible to keep it looking good at the same time also maybe add sky to it. maybe a moon? also in the foreground maybe a ship escaping the blast with a little blur to capture the essence of speed... just thought very nice start

I like it a lot, but at the same time it looks too 'busy' or cluttered to make a good desktop for my tastes.

looks great, i love how theres the flat ground part that makes it look like its coming up fast towards me over the horizon, good work!

i'm somewhat undecided on the ground and the bg behind the crystals at the moment.
