From tglover@nettally.com:
Striking layout - nice.  Foreground rock is pretty good too.  Moon srface
texture ok  but craters are too circular and edges of craters are too
smooth.  Also, moon's surface is very powdery -- this surface looks too
polished.

I like the lighting a lot

Stylish.  I like it a lot.  You achieved the stark look you wanted.  Good
balance.
Milky way seems too constrained to the center of the image.  Orbital ring around
Earth is ambiguous: too large to be man-made, too fat to be natural.

From mark.wagner17@gte.net:
From a purely technical point of view, the slight 
illumination of the dark side of the lighthouse is wrong.  
However, from an artistic point of view, the illumination 
is a good idea.  Nice job with the rocks.  The Milky Way 
looks out-of-place, standing out from the background 
stars too much.

From clem@dhol.com:
Interesting image.  The Milky Way is good.  To me, it 
suggests a "man in the moon" face.  I like the orbital ring.  
A lighthouse isn't the form I would expect for such a 
monument, but it looks good.  Where is the lander?  The 
rocks and craters work well, but far enough in the future for 
the monument to be that worn, they would be worn away as 
well.  Call it artistic license.  The poor choice of aspect 
ratio and the unesthetic signature hurt the image.
