===== From YaelParis@operamail.com: not really a garden. You should use antialiasing for the final rendering. ===== From whhale@nvl.army.mil: very loose connection to the theme. I thought that all submitted work was to be made especially for the competition??? ===== From tom@tomandlu.force9.co.uk: Almost works - perhaps if you pushed the painted effect further? ===== From Alain.Culos@bigfoot.com: A little more text might have helped understanding your approach to a garden. That's a try one by the looks of it, you definitely need plenty of shade for your drink. How much on topic is this I wonder. ===== From wozzeck@club-internet.fr: L'idee est bonne et change des jardins "de base". Tu as par contre quelques problemes d'eclairage, un peu "crame". Les zones noires de tes verres viennent sans doute de ton max_trace_level qui est trop petit: il ne faut pas hesiter a le monter a 10 ou plus dans ce type de scenes. ===== From albiaprime@aol.com: Technical - Nice work on the glasses, however, give a brief description of how you made them Artistic - simple basic 'still-life' style of layout Theme - certainly not a garden as interpretated by most ===== From mar@physics.usyd.edu.au: This has a very blocky feel to it, and seems more like a park bench scene than a garden of any sort.
