===== From d97ta@efd.lth.se: looks a lot better than crater.jpg, the rocks and the tree really helps a lot. however, too much of the image is in shadow. ===== From karl@pemail.net: Mountains are a bit steep edged. Nice water ===== From manorton@tcnet.net: Water is to reflective. Looks like a mirror. The lighting on the mountains is not natural, kind of broken. Keep working with Bryce, you have a nice touch for layout, just need the asthetics ===== From simon.davis@altavista.net: The mountains look like Darth Vader after he's been out in the sun too long. ===== From buck@cs.byu.edu: I like this one. Has kind of an exotic feel to it. The mountains in the distant seem kind of stretched, though, and the water appears a bit too reflective. I really like the plant on the left, though. ===== From djconnel@flash.net: This is a lot more effective than the preceding. However, if I were you I would look into Vue d'Esprit -- I think it does a better job on terrains than Bryce. On this image, I would make more use of "normal" texture modifiers to make the terrain appear more complex. Also, thesky needs work. There is also a clear JPEG artifact in the sky. ===== From bill@apocalypse.org: water seems too smooth, caustics? ===== From ethelm@bigfoot.com: Foreground nice. Distant hills unconvincing. Try Fractint or PovRay textures for height fields. Try different surface textures. ===== From fisher2@pobox.upenn.edu: Water has no ripples and the sky could use a gradient. The water looks more like blue glass. Also could use more than one piece of foliage in the scene. ===== From gmccarter@hotmail.com: Fine image. Far better than "Desert lake". Rocky spires are imposing, especially the dark one in the center. ===== From r@199.45.245.103: Pretty standard Bryce work, but I like the composition. You could try a rougher, more turbulent surface on the water.
