I think I prefer the cinema view. Mostly because I like the landscape so much. That landscape really steals the show in my opinion, to the point where the people just feel a bit awkward.

But it may just be their color as I noticed your entire background is very yellow. There is yellow crammed into just about every color used back there. Yet the two protagonists have not a speck of yellow on them.

Again I gotta get on you about some edge control. You need to tighten up those lines, and gives some of those colors some edges back there. Just some at focal points. To give it some visual organization.

I dropped it into photoshop to see if adding brightness and some unifying color tint helped at all, and some orange tint did help in some respects. Also, I noticed your image was 250 dpi still. Definitely go with 72dpi for web. That is standard.

I'd have to agree with Mike in saying that the landscape is my favorite part too. One detail I'd kind of like to see in the landscape is the shadow of the encroaching wave. I think that would make it look more ominous too. I think it's come a long way from before though, so good job.

phil i agree with Mike the background looks very nice and the people seem to stand out too much. i think you could try toning down the colors of the figures and maybe adding more grey in the scene. Right now the rocks seem to be all one color as well as the ground. i think the black lines on the figures make them look slightly flat. seems like you've been doing alot of work and it looks like you are improving alot.
