Colorful, but a bit too busy for my tastes.  I like the concept very much, but I

found the reflective walls distracting.  I like the helix hovering over the
planet.

From nx@chez.com:
Idee for sympathique ! Le rendu du metal est vraiment bon. Les effets de
lumiere sont interessants, en particulier les anneaux concentriques.
Nice looking, good job !

Nice pic, wonderful idea.

This is a very kewl picture, I almost can't believe that it's made in Bryce, I
hope the pov-ray fans give you due credit. I'm not sure I like the woman, I
think you could have done without her, the dna thingy. But overall a neat
picture and good concept of the theme.

A very good concept and interpretation of them ! :)

From skywise@fix.net:
Wonderful image, absolutely wonderful... The only thing I would suggest changing
is the 
textures one the control panels & valves... They seem just a bit flat...

From gmccarter@hotmail.com:
Mystical.  Nice touches like the valves and the human figure.
The reflection and ripples on the sidewalls make the image rather busy.

=====
From arcana@sinbad.net:
A very interesting concept. I think I would have liked to have seen some
more attention given to the control panels above the valves.

From djconnel@flash.net:
EXCELLENT Bryce work!!!

Very nicely done, and a remarkable twist on the 4 elements theme.
Impressive.

My only comment is the double helix seems a bit out of place.  But
that is a matter of taste -- it is an interesting touch.

(Sorry for english speaking people, but I feel I'll express myself better 
in French)

Belle idee dans l'ensemble, un peu metaphysique, comme _a...  L'image est
un
peu confuse, je crois savoir pourquoi : exces de reflection dans certaines
textures (murs, tuyaux,..).  Les textures dans les "portiques" seraient
bien mieux mises en valeur si les autres etaient plus "calmes" (ce qui
ne veut pas dire qu'elles doivent etre tristes non plus).  La geometrie
des portiques me derange un peu aussi : trop tordu, ou pas assez...

From r@dt027n86.maine.rr.com:
The idea is clever and interestingly done however opening up the scene to give
it more space to breath and create a belivable world might help finish this
cleaver scene.
Notable for originality

Very good image.  I really like the elemental textures.  The sketched double
helix is a nice touch.  Interesting idea.  This comment by clem@dhol.com.
