===== From darwallace@earthlink.net: For underwater scenes like yours, the higher the altitude, the brighter the color should be. You have it backward. ===== From pbourke@swin.edu.au: I didn't know what creature looks like....and I still don't. Perhaps it's a gamma thing but I couldn't make much out, that's fine but I needed more cues to appreciate this one. ===== From luisvaloyes@malditasea.zzn.com: although you wanted it to be dark, you made it extremely dark, so the shapes might be cool but I just can't know if they are... ===== From a.vannini@mclink.it: Erm, where is the picture? I've only retrieved a fully black scene, just with a little trace of blue... ===== From panthus@xtra.co.nz: I can't really make out much here, I don't know if it's gamma, conversion or just not enough light. ===== From dvnss@mega.ist.utl.pt: Educational ===== From marlo.steed@uleth.ca: Too dark to tell what it was (did you develop it on the Mac? you must adjust the gamma settings accordingly, that is what I do) ===== From tony@j4tb.com: You might want to reduce the resolution down some it makes it hard to rate when you need to scroll around to see the whole picture. Your image certainly conveys being underwater well. ===== From bbowen@cswnet.com: I had to adjust my monitor gamma to see this. It's really dark. Nice modelling on the monster. Textures could stand more detail. ===== From Alain.Culos@bigfoot.com: The bottom of the sea is a bit too dull (flat) and does not agree with the texture in my eyes. Nice idea. ===== From jrcsurvey@aol.com: Richly colored ===== From husakm@vscht.cz: Black nothing ? ===== From StephenF@whoever.com: Nice and murky... the creatures look good. The rock formations look a bit repetitive in shape, and the sea floor could use some unevenness. ===== From sjlen@ndirect.co.uk: It's a dark moody image but doesn't really say anything. The textures need some work and some seaweed and plants would be good. ===== From delfeld@mailcity.com: Nice fish (mammals?). The shadows of the creatures really give it nice depth perception. Good composition, though it is very centered.
