Beautiful image of mountains, tree, fire, and sky.  If the lightning was as high
quality as the rest it "woulda beena contenda!"

Lighting looks thick and blocky.

From gregj56590@aol.com:
Lightning should "light up" that which it hits.

Looks great

From gmccarter@hotmail.com:
I like the flying bits of burning branches, and the great sky in the
background.
The lightning itself seems much less realistic than the rest of the scene.
This image needs to be 800x600.

From djconnel@flash.net:
The lightning needs more work.  In other ways the image is good.

El rel_mpago necesita m_s trabajo. De otras maneras la imagen es buena.

Nice picture. I just regret it is only in 640x480, and that the lightning is a
bit too thick.

From r@cust193.webbernet.net:
Very good.  Unlike most 3dsmax images this round, the textures are very well
done and realistic.  The mountains are good, the sky is excellent and dramatic,
and the tree is very nice.  The fire (elements plugin?) looks, as usual for
this renderer, like it is poorly composited in, but at that range the effect is
still pretty good.  The lightning is very good indeed.  It forms a very
credible Lichtenberg figure, although the branching rate may be a bit high.  I
like the halo around the bolt.  The angles of the lightning could be a bit
smoother.  Well done, overall.  This comment by clem@dhol.com.
