Yes, but it burning or not was not the point of my post lol. It's just spoiling the whole img.
I kind've like it, adds a bit of excitement in the air. 
I like it as well. Gives the mental image of the moments just proceeding the suicide mission. Shepard and Tali neither knowing whether they would both, or either be walking out alive. However both did make it out, and now they hold each-other up and steady against the other as the adrenaline crash subsides, lending strength to one another and sharing an embrace that neither had any rights to expect would ever come.
The image in the foreground is so touching and poignant because of the image in the right corner, moments before both expected to wake up dead the next morning. This didn't happen, and both are all the more appreciative and grateful for the time they have together, having dodged the reaper (haha, both of them) in a big way.
Or something. Art ain't my deal.
I can agree that adding something "heating up" in there seems ok, but it should be done right. For example - using the same elements but in a diffrent way - it would look better if the normandy was taking something like half of the image, a bit more transparent, and behind Shepard and Tali if you know what I mean, this way Shep and Tali are markedly in the first plan, you can still see they are in a room somewhere on the ship but you also have that sense of "fire and heat" in there.
But it would take more time and effort than opening photoshop, loading
two images, copy+paste one on another and bluring the borders with a
rubber tool.
Could it be done "better" if such a thing exists in the realm of art, where tastes for aesthetics are not universal? Sure. Here comes the kicker, though. The million-dollar question: Are you going to be the one to do it?
It's easy to sit back and say "All wrong, mistakes were made here, here and here. Also this needs to be rotated 180 degrees for maximum effect."
It's something else entirely to sit down with rolled up sleeves, and say "All right, this was done wrong. Fixing the mistakes here, here, and here. Rotating this 180 degrees aaaaaaaand... done! NOW it's good."
If I don't have the urge to change something myself, and fix what I think the artist did wrong, I keep my mouth shut. If I don't feel that driving urge to get my hands dirty, the artist did a good enough job.
It's too easy to start criticizing, and after awhile you realize it's all you ever do anymore, rather than creating yourself.
Focus on the positives. Like how frackin' adorable Shep and Tali look!
