Welcome to Gaia! ::

i really love the reflection. ;A;
I like the look of this pic since i love darkness, black and moon
however there are still problems that I would like to point out:
first off, the biggest thing that bothers me is the moon. it looks very flat. you should add the shadow and more values on it, also remove the black outline. at first glance, it may look like a moon but then it is more like a sphere filled with smoke
second, the reflection of the moon and the wolves, tree. i knew it was a reflection but i did not know if there was water there until i noticed that the reflection looks kinda blurry and twisted a bit. it does not look like a reflection on water at all.
third, the clouds do not blend in with the sky and the scene. they rather look.. there! a whole bunch of smoke from somewhere. they just don't look natural, i'm guessing it is because of the lightness, darkness and colors.
last but not least, CLOUDS ARE NEVER BEHIND THE MOON. Cloud is a gathering of waterdrops as air body and it belongs to the atmosphere on the earth, while the moon is a lot farther circulating the earth. this is the BIGGEST problem of this piece. that's why the first time i saw it, i felt very awkward but did not know why, now i got it.

there, i've stated my opinion. about the fact of original or not, photoshop is not 100% original unless you draw something using it, editing photos is another thing~ what original here is how you make the pic look better and use appropriate pictures to create your own work. at least you spent sometime to practice your photoshop skill yet 12 hours is not enough. beside keeping your eyes on laptop screen and photoshop, go observe things around you and take references so that you can improve your works and make them look real, to avoid such thing like what I stated above, the clouds and the moon. In order to make something completely original and beautiful, practicing and observing are some of the most essential elements to succeed. sitting in front of the laptop screen will not help you unless you go out and look around.

Anyway, here are some references for you:

take a careful look at the moon and its reflection, you'll see the different from your work.

Probably spend a little more hours to make this one better? I will be eager to see it if you do.
