===== From mikko.oksalahti@dosetek.varian.com: Good idea. Reminds me of the movie "Planet of the Apes". ===== From jamez@xover.ml.org: remember, nothing artificial! ===== From gregj56590@aol.com: Neat vines. Neat buildings. Neat idea, of nature growing over worst mistakes. ===== From d97ta@efd.lth.se: nice plants, but the ground and background texturing needs more work. a bit too cluttered. ===== From marc_w@ncx.com: i really like the contast between the plants and the desolation. nice work ===== From buck@cs.byu.edu: Very nice! I like the allegory. The plants are wonderful...it really looks overgrown. My one suggestion has to do with the ruins--they look like one big piece of rock. Perhaps some kind of normal perturbations could be used to give the impression of bricks, and of erosion? ===== From jaime@ctav.es: Very nice concept. Excellent modeling tricks (I like HF's!). Great result! ===== From djconnel@flash.net: I give this one a high concept score : Excellent! The modeling on the wreckage, especially the rusted structure, is very nice. The radiation sign is an excellent touch. However, te plants need a little more variation. They are too similar and all too regular. Still, this image, with some improvements, could be a winning image. ===== From bill@apocalypse.org: I love your theme. ===== From ethelm@bigfoot.com: One of the best images this round. ===== From 101741.541@compuserve.com: Excellent idee, bonne composition. Le beton envahi par les plantes est tres bien fait. Je regrette un peu le choix des couleurs. Ca aurait ete l'occasion de travailler avec deux palettes contrastees : une tristounette pour les equipements nucleaires, une autre extremement vive et gaie pour la nature. ===== From gmccarter@hotmail.com: Powerful imagery, with a real message. Fantastic! The leaves on the climbing vines at the top of the scene seem distractingly regular/identical: they are all hanging directly downwards. Even worse, they are all exactly facing the camera, not turned even slightly. But all the other plant life in the scene is superb. Excellent variety of styles, colors, placement. Bravo.
