===== From agage@mines.edu: I'd suggest turning on anti-aliasing and maybe zooming in a bit -- the middle object is hard to see. ===== From bill.marrs@pureatria.com: Details, close-ups, not so much blue-space would have helped this image ===== From cfusner@enter.net: Worthy choice of subject for such a competition, but the image is lacking, I'm afraid. The planet and satelite could have used a bit more "rigging" to show they were museum pieces. Either one of those mechanical gimmicks where the satelite is revolved on a metal arm, or since you said it is a futuristic museum, perhaps some mechanism that implied the model was being held up by magnetic repulsors, or antigrav or something. The prism's spectrum: try using halos to "fake" the splitting of light beams into colors. The cradle was well done. As for the portrait: good choice of image map. Picture could use a frame, though. And the image seriously needs some antialiasing in its final form. ===== From alex@astro.queensu.ca: the main attraction is an image map, not the raytracing aspect
