Digital art .
creative .
ability very good
I like the water & reflection .
the I like the trees and shrubs close to ground and in the DOF .also the cloudy sky with the lightning strikes .I also like the bounces of light here and there through trees .( the one thing that seems to overpower this creative work is The big trees I find just a little dark Just me no offence ,just a tad lighter I think would just make a perfect view .)
Very talented digital work .a enjoyable view Thanks and the best of luck

Oh how I love black and white. It adds so much depth and drama. Your digital creation is truly dramatic. Just beautiful. The soft glow of light filtered through the trees is breathtaking.

It truly amazes me what can be done with digital art. This is just a wonderful example, in black and white, no less, of what a fabulous work can come from the imagination of the artist's creation.

Comment from avmurray
This is truly beautiful, and I doubt if it would be better in colors, because what I like the best is actually that this is done in black and white. It is so many lovely details to look at in this work, and it is also quite original to show a sunset and lightening at the same time. How this is scene between the tall dark trees is also giving this digital painting a feel of mysticism.
You have paid a very good attention to details, but most of all I am impressed by how well you have used the light. It is also very good distinctions between light and dark in this image.
I also think the composition is very strong with a very good flow and balance. I think this is really well crafted digital painting and a lovely entry for this contest, and I wish you luck with the contest.

AV, what a beautiful review. Thank you so much! Well worth the struggles I had with it. Hard to do a sunset in b&w without it looking like the moon. Thank you also for the good luck wish, much appreciated. You made my day!

You are more than welcome.

This is a very well rendered scene. The moody black colors coupled with the lighter shades makes this an eye catching image. The lightening in the background is a nice touch. Very well done and best of fortune in the contest ~ Steve

Comment from Dick Lee Shia
An Oriental concept.
Enigmatic approach.
A forested presentation.
Reminds me of the forest bonsai pine I created way back in the island.
This must be a sunset judging from that lightning slashing the saturated skyline.
Impressive b&w rendition. Excellent tonal range. Nice features & textures. Good lighting & framing. Thanks for sharing... Best of luck in the contest!

An eye catching presentation. I like the composition and the excellent detail. At first I thought the background included lightning which does not much convey the sunrise or sunset theme. Best wishes in the contest.
