Excellent details but the main idea is missing.

the planets inside of the atmosphere look a bit out of place,
they should be behind the clouds (or so i think).
nice touch with the ripples beneath the eart/fire, they are a bit
too distinct though. they should have smoother transitions.

You certainly "parsed" the concept of nature. Well done.

Nice textures, lighting.  The ripples in the water seem kind of like
"speed-bumps."  Perhaps if the transitions were smoother?

I've deducted points, because everyone knows the eastern United
States is the center of the civilized world :).

Just kidding -- nicely done!!! I like the representation of the topic.

A few areas which could use improvement:

* the flames don't look quite right
* The planets look like disks, not spheres.
* the flames should be a prominent source of light, I think

Still, I really like this one!

Modify this and resubmit for the "Elements" competition!
Looks like a great deal of work went into this scene, many individual objects are well-detailed, particularly the fire cauldron and the corn, but overall it's just too symbolic for me.
