Clever use of filters. Good colors and sharpness. The idea is good but the execution is a not quite as good given the title. I would a stuck with the crystal ball title. Finally, the roof top in the center of the picture doesn't help the overall composition.

I will not pretend to understand the processes you used to create this image, but it is at once quite lovely and very interesting.

I actually like the water a good deal, with the waves and reflections. It looks very real, contrasting nicely with the setting crystal ball.

Very well done.

Creativity is everything!
The overall Color and tones make this picture jump out at you. Then you study the detail and story and makes for a wonderful Picture to look at and review. The details of the inner picture in the inner Sun are very effective. The foliage and soft sunset and clouds are very well done. Really great work, Thanks for sharing it. I don't know how you did it.
It does not matter, the finished product is Great.
Thanks for sharing. Royal

A very pleasant piece of digital photo artwork you have here. Loved the concept and the ideas behind this work. The color choice is warm and ideal and the the round ball is perfect for the sun. The reflection is just right for the title and I simply cannot take my eyes off this one. Looking deeper into the ball to see if I see anymore things that I have missed. Good fabulous job!

Beautiful composition. The color is nice and warm. Almost has that down home feeling. The winter scene and the orange warmth create that feeling I think. Thanks for sharing

What a creative idea! I love it. The colors are so beautiful and strong. I like the way you have shown the "sun" in the orange ocean water. The focus is the sun is clear and crisp despite how tiny it looks.
