Description
As *MarkShannon suggested me for the "Spirit" shot, I added a black border to another shot I took the same day.I made the picture monocromatic with photoshop and changed the color balance, 20-30% for the blue color.
Maybe the blue color is too much powerful, but I like it!
Thx again to *MarkShannon!

The blue is perfect. I really love how you brought down the foreground lower rather than keeping it at its usual center. There isn't much to say to improve this piece, but you might want to play with tonality (light blue recessing into darker) just for the hell of it. Otherwise, wonderful piece.

I like what you did with the blues. it looks a bit grainy though. The border is a good idea, but you may want to consiter making it deeper. When framing artwork you generally mat it with 2.25" mat on all sides, min. More if its a large peice, or if you are useing fillits or something. This creates a non-space around the work so that your viewers eyes have time to rest before they view the work. Kinda like cleaning your visual pallet......

thank you for the comment, I had a really hard time for the border, and it seems to me that I made the wrong choice!
Anyway, thank you!

The simplism of this piece really appeals to me - the silhouetted trees and the soothing clouds. A refreshingly uncluttered composition. The overruling tone of blue gives this a sense of purpose which is a big plus. However, there are a few instances of noise which spoil it a little.
Great work anyway

I love this picture I've never seen sun rays shine Up in the sky, they have always rained down. And the blue is not to powerful and this image isn't all that grainy. I love everything about the shot. IT makes it Unique. Wonderful image

great hue, but a bit grainy. I really like how the sun rays turned out

The grainy is due the gaussian blur I added, I tried to make it old style but with unnatural blue color!

This is so beautiful - the way the light beams escape over the clouds. I really like what you did with the after effects. It really made this pic even more artistic. The way the trees are silhoutted too, is very beautiful!

omg, its me! 
no problem man, borders really finish a piece off. I too learned to do it on DeviantART. I make better borders for my prints over on my prints account though
that sure is a nice picture, very good silhouette and editing with the colour. well done
