Very nice composition. The lighting gives this a warm charm. Very well done only thing I would do different is crop in closer allowing to show more detail.

Very nice! Well balanced image. And the light painting across the cross is very powerful. Little dark at the bottom, and a little bright in the upper right corner for my tastes, but still a compelling, powerful image. Bumped this into my top images. 8

Should have zoomed in more. Then straighten it because it's tilted to the right. Then use dodging and burning maybe to give it a little more pizzaze.

love the concept but think it would be better cropped much tighter

I think this photo is a little bit too dark.

Very atmospheric lighting makes this a powerful image.
I hope you don`t get hammered for it being slightly higher than centre.
great work.

Very nice lighting, really captures the tone of the photograph.

Fabulous light. Christ-figure looks a touch washed out (dodging?), and seems to have lost a touch of detail through that - just enough to stop him popping out of scene nicely. Murkiness and shading of the remainder of the screen is wonderfully done though. 7

I like the picture, and the cross is centered and stands out a bit in the light, but the cross doesn't dominate the picture.

I love the moody lighting and how it strikes the main centered subject. Color is also very good and like the capture of detail here. Well done.

With the sintle ray of sunshing shining right on the crucifix. Great timing to capture at that moment.
