===== From chris@bluelectrode.com: Concepts interesting, although the focuss of the image is a little sparse. It looks like it's lacking something... Also, it would have been helpful to have had a more complete txt file. Still, not a bad image. ===== From bill@apocalypse.org: the earth needs a cloudy atmosphere ===== From YaelParis@operamail.com: the "island" is too disconnected from the water surface. Maybe use a heightfield to add some "real" waves on the water surface. ===== From gregj56590@aol.com: Superb image and concept. That brick patio in middle of pool is not right: sharp edges (for a swimming pool) and not right width for someone to safely relax on a chair with. ===== From whhale@nvl.army.mil: Too bad you didn't tell us a little about it. ===== From tom@tomandlu.force9.co.uk: I loved this but felt it was too bright. ===== From Alain.Culos@bigfoot.com: For an extragalactic garden, its not that 'extra' (external) at all ... or do you think the earth is outside a galaxy ? A nice concept and a good quality realisation. ===== From albiaprime@aol.com: Technical - Were all the images created by hand in POV? Artistic - Nicely arranged and balanced Theme - what a unique idea, a 'green space' in the centre of a swimming pool ===== From mar@physics.usyd.edu.au: This is a pleasingly constructed image, with nice shiny spaceship surfaces. The idea is simple but effectively executed. The water appears too blue, however, and there is no real detailing put into the elements outside the garden patch - the surfaces are just too clean and plain.
