I wonder why this has not been commented yet ... good work - maybe some more saturated colours than I can handle ;)
It has the style of those paintbrush images

I think there is something missing. It's out of balance (I do a lot of out of balance renders). Maybe a airliner added to the right side?

I think that's probably the weight of the heavy contrast. Maybe a little more of the umbra from the eclipse would balance the effect.

Nice!
You got a great diamond ring there.
the contrast between the lit and unlit part of the atmosphere is more than I remember from 99 when I had the great luck to witness a total eclipse.
It looks good though and maybe some stars on the dark side could add to the balance njeneb mentioned?
You can have mine if you like them, although there are much better starfields by now:

I just see there are stars, but for soome strange reason they apear more obviously on the bright side, at least on my monitor.
Nevermind
