===== From Sean_Hamilton@amrcorp.com: I like the way you textured your glass and the content, while scientific, feels warm and active, and draws the viewer into wondering what's happening. ===== From swl7m@virginia.edu: I really like this image. Especially the bumping of the glass. My one problem is the water on the table, the water doesn't seem to work right. ===== From gmol@my-dejanews.com: The water looks mighty fine! ===== From jsaxton@folio.com: Nice looking image ===== From bobfranke@halcyon.com: You really did a nice job on the glass textures. My only thought for improvement is for rounder edges on the spilled water. Maybe just running the height field through an averaging filter will do the job. ===== From gmccarter@hotmail.com: Good subtle lighting. Interesting tabletop texture. Spilled water has that "cut out from a sheet of plastic"-look. Too bad the bubbles are not visible. I really like the subtle ripples on the flask surface. ===== From kosh@nesys.com: Everything is "real" except the spill. The wood is great. ===== From ethelm@bigfoot.com: Well lighted, illustrates the topic and is accurate. ===== From djconnel@flash.net: Wow..... Nicely done!!! The composition is quite simple, but the careful modeling and nice dose of disorder make the image a real winner. The bubbles, ripples, etc are all expert touches. The cork is wonderfully done -- very realistic. The color on the table top really adds to the scene -- it looks like an old, sturdy laboratory. One small detail -- there are artifacts at the joining of your toroids and your cylinders -- use "merge" instead of "union", perhaps. Dan ===== From bill@apocalypse.org: I had one of those in college, we used it in our dorm room to smoke marijuana. :-) The glass all looks great, the spilled water looks a bit odd though - not translucent enough? seems to be floating above the table. ===== From wozzeck@club-internet.fr: A great photorealistic picture. It just lacks some bubbles... ===== From r@client8788.globalnet.co.uk: Notable for composition, lighting
