This is a background inspired by the shawshank redemption, one of my favourite movies.

all done in flash.

again, feel free to give any tips/criticism.

You captured the mood really nicely. I love it although you could maker the lens flair and the light little bit dimmer because it makes the object seem closer than it's supose to be IF it's supose to be the moon also i see some pixelation in the clouds that are on top of the light. Not a huge deal but it usually has to be taken to inconsideration when importing images to flash. Keep it up :)

I dislike how you did the lightning bolt. As large and detailed as it is it would certainly be a whole lot brighter than it is. You should try to shrink it and make it look like it's in the distance.

I love this piece though.

I thought that that the lighting was already fading away and that's why it's dimmer although if the lightning would have been brighter you could have added some cool bright highlights and made the whole piece look more interesting.
