===== From cmorack@relex.com: Nice glass. ===== From agage@mines.edu: Nice composition. The rose could use some kind of surface normal perturbation on the stem...or perhaps even thorns. ===== From jaime@ctav.es: Hmmm... nice, but there are too big (C) notices and banners... and, of course, the fridge isn't the best place for whiskey! :) P.S.: I remember a image very very similar to this one, but don't remember where or when I've seen it... ===== From Martin.Magnusson.7121@student.uu.se: Great atmosphere - very good-looking scene! Too bad I can't give you any technical merit for the rose. ===== From sanna@censa3.polito.it: A very good model of rose ===== From ethelm@bigfoot.com: Very nice atmospheric effect and pleasant composition. ===== From gmccarter@hotmail.com: I thought, "nice rose". Then, wait a minute, hey! That's MY rose! But this is a good use of it (except it seems to be sinking into the tabletop a little bit), so you have my permission to use it. :-) Nice wavy texture on the glasses. I like the atmosphere overall. ===== From arcana@sinbad.net: It's a lovely image, but I wish you'd created the rose yourself, rather than use another's object. Especially as it's so central to your image. ===== From djconnel@flash.net: Return of the 'cinema rose :). Nicely done!!! The lack of original modeling hurts the tech score for competition, but the composition and lighting are extremely well done! ===== From econoltd@thezone.net: Very sharp detail...nice rose. ===== From r@dial-up30.webbernet.net: The haze was a mistake. The borders were a very big mistake. They ruin what potential the image has. The pool of beverage should be more noticeable and better textured. The tech would not be high, since the focus of the scene is an import. This comment by clem@dhol.com.
