Yeah I can see where Jal may have thought the colors weren't hand picked. I think it's the flame coming out of the dragons mouth? With that being said I can't tell what the fire is coming out of..(I hope its his mouth haha) It is just so dark that it's really really hard to determine whats going on in this picture. Best way to fix this is to take some of those darker shades of red you used for the fire and outline some objects that you want to stand out...Kind of line down the side of the castle more, and some more of the body features of the dragon..Maybe even give him a light blue outline on his back where the moon is hitting him. Also the reflection in the water could be more red around the area under the dragons flame...and the lighter reflection colors you see in the water (obviously from the moon) should be going toward the moon. The angle they are going really hurts the anatomy of the whole pixel.
