What a pleasant surprise to see someone take the time to comment at this level, without it being a Critique Club critique.

Thanks and kind regards Zed.

Dunno, I was one of the ones that gave you an 8 for it. My scoring breakdown (I've started trying to apply a methodology to my votes):

Base: 5 points (met the challenge)
Technical (from -2 to +1): +0 - No notable technical flaws, but not technically brilliant to the point of making me say "wow".
Subject (from -1 to +2): +1 - Somewhat interesting subject. It has a simple elegance, and the clouds provide a nice backdrop
Emotion (from 0 to +2): +2 - Strongly evocative. What got me was the lone star visible over the cross, making it the heavens watching over the church as much as the church watching over the night.
Personal (from -1 to +1): +0 - No personal bias for or against the image applied (I'm an athiest, but that doesn't stop me from appreciating decent symbolism).

I like the shape and placing your the cross? mast?. I have to admit that I have spent more time looking at your frame and figuring out how to do the same thing. 7

Very good. Would be better if the clouds were not in it, but nature is as nature does. 9
