It looks rather pretty, I think. A very interesting mood, -not- what I would've expected from you

lol....a man of many talents, yet master of none. Or something similar eh?

I have a couple of suitably creepy things in the works for you though

Once I can be bothered getting up early enough to get some good pictures I think I'll cheat on this one and finish it off with some textures

I get up at 7 AM every day now. When I go to sleep? After 3AM. I get four hours of sleep, maximum, every night now that my sleeping problems have resurfaced. Maybe it's school and stress and things... but getting up early is actually great, and not ONLY because I have classes. I like being active during daylight hours, before the sun disappears for the winter...

lol, I'm the same. But I've been working til fairly late at night lately which screws up my whole sleeping pattern. To get the sun right in the valley at the bottom of our street I'll need to be on the ridge at like six in the morning....possibly earlier now that we're coming into spring

Ah well, here the sun will soon begin rising in the afternoon, and setting half an hour after sunrise. It's really interesting, walking to school in complete darkness, with the aurora borealis - the northern lights, as I'm sure you know - as your only company, seeing a glimpse of sunlight through a classroom window sometime during the day and then walk home with the aurora borealis over your head after school. Especially to children and youth trapped in school all day, the winter is completely sunless.

Well you're welcome to borrow some of our sun *squints at out the window into the excessive brightness*

Personally I don't think I could hack darkness all the time. I'd be moving quick smart if I was in your position

I actually like it here. Sunlight, I like, but I like the Aurora Borealis too, and during summer, the sun never sets so...

I like the composition of this. Your image is clearly divided in parts. You should try to make those different components talk with eachother. For intstance, you have a huuuge sun in the background. Even though it's evening, it will still light up the whole place and there will be a glare around it. It should effect the mountains right beneath it at least. The trees below look too green to be ligthed by an evening sun. I think they should look a bit darker and have a more reddish glow closer to the sun.

Keep on painting and be sure to take your time on those little things. It's always a good idea to look at reference photos. You can always deviate from real life, but know where to do that. Make sure you achieve a believable look.
