===== From chipr@niestu.com: Room looks close and cramped. The lamps look filled with liquid--hollow them out or reduce your IOR! Colors and modelling are good, lighting is fair. ===== From jay@map.com: While the papryus is a bit dark, the cabinet in the corner of the room looks washed out. Love the lamps. Very nice indeed! ===== From cgallego@nordnet.fr: Have you ever seen a petrol lamp ????? http://home.nordnet.fr/~cgallego ===== From tholal@bga.com: Rather than making the paper fragment a transparent gif you could have tried just using it as an image map and then specifying within POV what the transparent color should be. It's worked pretty well for me. ===== From bill.marrs@pureatria.com: Nice use of atmospheric effects, creates a nice evening candlelit mood. ===== From klynn@minn.net: Very nice lamp! There's something strange about the proportions in this image. Just how small is that chest of drawers? ===== From ucoakc00@mcl.ucsb.edu: BTW: Who's holding the magnifying glass? ===== From usmitc04@mcl.ucsb.edu: That's quite a levitating magnifying glass you've got there. ===== From rea@st-and.ac.uk: Unfortunate about the lighting - if I could say one thing to every entrant this month, it would be that when tracing glass, don't overdo the modelling, but spend all you time getting light right. ===== From wyvern@u.washington.edu: You know, between the goblet (pretty good) and the lamp (drop-dead gorgeous), I almost think you could have left the magnifying glass lie less notacably flat on the table instead of propping it up. :) Oh well, I like this image anyway. ===== From amarok@geocities.com: Nice lamp. ===== From bsieker@techfak.uni-bielefeld.de: The upper glass parts of the lamps appear to be solid, or completely filled with liquid. To allow a flame to burn, they should be hollow, I think. ===== From lpurple@netcom.com: The oil lamp model is good; the drinking glass looks a little too thick. Nice lighting. (PS: POV does let you have local atmospheres: see "halos") From web_user@tonyv.aztec.co.za: I like the atmosphere it generates. Notable for lighting, composition
