i love this atmosphere, how you done this? really inspiring and for me; beauty ^^
Bien vu!
Contrary to Jabber, I think the far layers move too much, they make the sky look flat. The foreground slides by, say, 1m: you should keep this figure for all layers. Far layer moves by about 3m now, the one in front of it too.
There might be even more layers 
: the second from front, and the far one, could be split.
The whole anim might gain by being a little slower.
Light and atmosphere could improve too: more contrast, long shadows, dark mysterious areas.
Great parallaxing effect, it's cool what 5 planes do to a picture 
I'm honored that my little preview could lead to such goodness :)!
To all, thanks for the comments and favs.
@StickyTape : You know, it's partly because of you that I ultimately did this anim:
For my previous picture, I was looking for ideas for the preview, as every crop from the picture I made was dull in 100x100. Viewing your preview pict for Wile E. Coyote's Space Exodus, I decided to do a scrolling with my picture and ended up with the simple parallax preview that finaly led to this anim ...
This works very well, nice job! I enjoyed that I found new things even after looking at it a minute (the crypt in the back opening every other pass with the spooky eyes). The preview seisure is fun to look at as well :D
The perspective is good but not quite perfect... I think the furthest layer should move perhaps a bit more. I don't think it is quite distant enough to move as slowly as it does.
The movement it's some repetitive like a clock pendulum, but nice effect.
Wow That One IS better than the Preview And BEtter Than The Old One =)
Nice Upgrade l0l =)
@Manupix: Thanks for the critics, much appreciated.
About the far layer, I agree with you, it should move less.
About the animation : I had a problem : since I wanted it to loop, I had to make it go left to right and then right to left, and I needed to cushion the movement at both ends. This cushionning resulted in half pixels moves that I couldn't handle simply. The easy way to do it was to speed up the anim and magnify the layers moves. In fact that's the only way I saw. I would be glad if someone could point me to a better technical solution to this issue.
Might forward this to the forums for that discussion, but I'm a bit scared. Newbee me.
About the light and atmosphere: I tried to put projected shadows, but couldn't reach a result that satisfied me. And I kind of like the fact that without these shadows, one can not immediately locate the light source, it gave the picture it a strange feeling that suited me.
