Description I think this might be the first pony drawing I really went all out for. The drawing itself wasn't terribly difficult, but the colour matching took hours @_@ It kept getting too purple, and then I had a horrible time trying to match Luna with the background. Low opacity is my best friend today!
I hope I didn't get too carried away with the stars...whoops...

Hope you like it!

Gorgeous picture, I love the detail in her mane and tail and all the stars, and that fallen star is beautiful.
This picture needs more love D:

This is simply stunning! Really loving the atmospheric color pallete. 
It all fit so well with the environment and Luna herself.

So amazing, much sugoi!

"Oh? That star is falling on its own? Should I make a wish? Umm.... I wish... *she closes her eyes and put her hoof to her chest* that everypony can see my night and understand the hard work I put into it for their own visual pleasure without a thing in return but show me their love and affection in return for the beauty of the night I offer them. *she opened her eyes, her hoof still to her chest, waiting* *she looked at ground to see if ponies were gathering to watche her night* Well? How is it supposed to work? Should I wait some more? Is it going to work only in the morning? *she removed her hoof from her chest, still no ponies appearing* Maybe... I did something wrong? Yes, I'm sure I probably did something wrong. I'll ask Tia about it first thing this morning..."

Wonderful work. Oh Luna...

This is beautiful, I love how well you made Luna blend in with the sky, her mane and tail almost look as if they are part of the clouds, so much fantastic detail in this picture I just adore it, you've done fabulous work!

Wow thank you so much! I'm glad to hear the mane is blending well, because that is honestly what I struggled with the most D:
