*Hello from Sid and the Critique Club*
Oh cor blimey, I've drawn my own image for critique! I didn't realise that could happen, ah well...

Well, I've certainly learnt a hard lesson from this to make sure I thoroughly check ALL the detail. Not only was this a rushed entry but I had thoroughly cleaned the sensor before going out so I didn't even bother to check for sensor dust, I should have done because I changed lenses several times. No excuses, lesson learnt.

It's not dust, they're planets! No, even I wouldn't fall for that!

This is what comes of rushing a last minute entry without enough attention to detail, justifiably penalised.

Thank you all for your constructive comments

Good concept. Interesting clouds, good composition. Too many visible splotches. Work on spot removal.

Quite a lot of sensor dust on this one.

The dirty spot on the image adds no value to the entry, take care of something like that next time. It immediately drew my attention away from the subject matter

Interesting image. The transition of colors is peaceful. I'm noticing some sensor dust - I'm familiar with it in my camera as well =)

Very serene and captured well. Is that a dust bunny on the mid left though?
