===== From elvish_archer@mailcity.com: u are a fast learner ===== From darwallace@earthlink.net: Sea floor is almost barren. ===== From pbourke@swin.edu.au: Induces a sense of fear..... ===== From dvnss@mega.ist.utl.pt: The shark looks too fishy... :-) ===== From marlo.steed@uleth.ca: Great image, nice concept. The lighting works well. ===== From tony@j4tb.com: I think your image definitely captures the terror. Your diver looks like his outfit is a little bulky. (This may be the intent.) The lighting worked well for you. ===== From Alain.Culos@bigfoot.com: There is some atmosphere in that picture, nicely done. ===== From husakm@vscht.cz: One of the few realistc lighted underwater scenes .... ===== From StephenF@whoever.com: Good work on the shaping of the sharks and the diver, although the diver does have a bit of a blobby look in spots. A nice murky look to the whole scene. The surface of the water might benefit from a little more work... it has more of a cracked mud look than a wavy look to me. ===== From sjlen@ndirect.co.uk: A good looking image. The textures need some work, particularly on the sharks and on the seabed. ===== From delfeld@mailcity.com: Nice models. A comment about composition: the lines in the sharks are pointing at the diver, but the light the diver is holding creates a bright line down the arm, re-directing the focus of attention to the light itself (light have a tendency to do this). Putting the light behind the arm (turning the hand, or whatever) so that there is no light cast on the arm would light up the chest and lead right to the face-mask, which is a center of curiousity in a symbolic image since the facial expressions are used to convey meaning. The secondary symbol of the hand gesture is subtle, and is good for emphsis.
