Thanks all for your inspiring comments. You're right about the fonts, they got lost in the image a bit.

Hey there from the Critique Club

Camera Work/Technical: Great focus that makes every single element in this capture look crisp and clean. The vivid colors you captured suggest a proper white balance setting, as well as add some terrific elements into the frame.

Lighting: Your lighting is also very strong. Your shadows add some great texture and depth to the image.

Composition/Content: Overall, I'd have to say I like it. It is very clean and very busy all at the same time. I think that your titles, while made with very appealing fonts, need a little work to stand out more. Both get lost in the image, but just a little

My Opinion: I think that this one scored about where it should have. Nice work on a well-deserved 6+.

Thank you for the opportunity to provide a critique on your entry,
Eric

For DPL, depth = pleasure. They wanted a rhythm so deep that the earth would spin to it. They were looking for a beat in the heart of the Milky Way, a harmony that would warp gravitational fields. This was their pleasure. If you play this album, shut off all the lights. You will want to be alone with the Universe as you listen to it.

Probably the best text i've seen this challenge (so far) and the most album-cover like as a complete image... I just think if the background was blacked out so it was just planets and moons this would have been awesome.

I'm guessing this is a very cool planetary display somwhere - great muted colors, wonderful light and texture. A very nice presentation!

A slightly busy image but it works for me. Suggestive of conceptual music on the album.

Cosmic Force seems more visible than the actual name of the band. I would probably swap the fonts.
