===== From chris@bluelectrode.com: Great concept. It works well. The capsule and flowers/plants look very well modeled. My only complaint being the need for either more objects around the capsule or the camera focussed more on the capsule itself. Good job. ===== From YaelParis@operamail.com: I really like this entry. There's no technical stuffs but it looks very nice. good work ! ===== From rbyman@rockies.net: Nice take on "Garden". The snow and mountains are convincing. ===== From whhale@nvl.army.mil: I like th glow of the pod light on the snow. There have been a few of these scenes this round. ===== From ameede@madmac.com: Well, I like the work. Here you have a small garden encapsulated for protection from a desolate and harsh environment. It's lack of added objects or details is what gives this image its strength. Do not get me wrong, detail and multiplicity of objects within a scene has its place but when I interpret you title in relationship to your image, I think you did a great job. ameede@madmac.com ===== From Alain.Culos@bigfoot.com: I like your 'pick your story'. As a matter of fact this picture leads itself to open the imagination, that's a success in itself. ===== From albiaprime@aol.com: Technical - nice work on the lid for the terrarium Artistic - very good, the scene makes a very bold yet poignant statement Theme - matches the theme well; a garden in a jar ===== From mar@physics.usyd.edu.au: Okay, nice idea, technique seems okay, but the artistic composition lets this down. The huge empty space doesn't really show us anything, and the detail is all concentrated in a small region of the image where we can't really see it. ===== From file: very nice, great interpretation Notable for originality, composition, textures, lighting ===== From file: very nice, great interpretation Notable for originality, composition, textures, lighting ===== From file: Just a note from the artist - the grass macro is by G. Tran, and not C Colefax as stated in the text file. ===== From file: Very nice. Lighting is nice. Good concept. Maybe more detail in the terrain?
