Very cool. This piece has power. Only thing that really bugs me is the edges of the big cloud. High light mass at the clouds edges would give a dramatic effect and a taste of reality.

Hmm yeh you have a point there. I will likely revise this piece, and shall bear that in mind.

Seems there's been a decided lack of worthy comments on deviantart lately, so how about one?

There's something incredibly soothing about this piece to me; as a space artist myself I tend to look for pieces that have meaning to them. A favourite theme of mine is the one of abandoned places in space; and with the name and the image, you have captured this theme perfectly. "A burst of light illuminates the sky beyond the forgotten architecture of a long-lost civilisation", are the words that I'd choose to describe it. Aesthetically, it comes across as flawless and transitionally smooth, which aids to the calm yet brilliant feel to it all. You were right about the dark matter; it ads an extra dimension of wonderment to the image, and helps lead the eye and the imagination from the scenery to the beyond.

A wonderful image, and I know there's more to come.

Better late than never. Although as you say you've left it some time, the work has turned out alright
