I don't know how you create such, I don't know, quality and smoothness over everything in it.
If I would say anything negative, it's only the flare to the lower left that looks a bit stock. But that's being very picky.
No, it's actually a very pertinent bit of criticism you offered there - it indeed looks a bit bad, but back then, the left area felt actually quite...empty, which is what prompted me to use a flare, not only to fill the negative space but also to have the render's particular lighting dovetail with the dark-bright surroundings.

So, in a way, it's like falling from Charybdis into Scylla.
