:::Critique Club Here:::

First Impression: Very nice lots to look at kept me interested.
Compostion: 8 well balanced only thing I did'nt like was the car lights.

Technical: 8 I would have post processed by cloning out the power lines and make those stars stand out just a little bit more.

Appeal: 10 Very nice image to look at.

Challenge: 10 I see the sky helping enhance the the overall subject being either the light tower or the Northern lights.

Title: 4 Really here you could have done something to give it more flavor just too bland with "Northern Lights" I think this is very important in photography.

Overall: 8 What do they say "everyone is a critic" Hope this helped.

If only the distracting blown-out headlight wasn't in the image. :-(

This is SO BEAUTIFUL!!! It takes my breath away! It's the first time I've seen an interesting object sticking up into the Northern Lights. It adds so much interest to an already spectacular scene! 10

The photo is awesome except for the bright light in the corner. For me it really ruins the image. I mean it literally takes a 10 on this image and makes it a 6, it's that bad.

Very cool capture. The towers add some interest to the shot IMO. Nice job.

This is very nice. I like the orange of the car light and the orange light on the tower. And I like the vertical lines of the tower and northern lights.

I like the effect but the lights on the car coming towards you just does not work for me. I think the red trails from the cars away from you is probably fine but a little distracting also.

I'd tilt it back to the left a smidge so that the straight part of the horizon is level. Love the green!!

is good, but the car going past is a bit distracting.
