===== From charliemc@prodigy.net: Good idea. ===== From hgregory3@aol.com: If it had not been for your notes the hot-cold contrast here would not have been immediately obvious as the wrinkled water surface in the hot tub is so churned up it looks more like a planter with no flowers in it. ===== From steve@neurotrain.com: A 14 T 15 C 14 Very well framed, and lit quite well. However, it appears that the woman is looking to the right of the snowman...maybe at the tree branch the snowman is holding that seems to extend from the tree way in the back . Technically the water looks great, but the wood texture needs to be improved. The icy grass is good, but what is the nicely rounded hole in the snow bank about? Concept is good if a bit strained. ===== From StephenF@whoever.com: Definitely some nice work here. I'm glad you decided to add the girl's reflection... it does a lot to make the scene work for me. The snowman looks pretty cool (no pun intended), but the face seems rather large, and the coal seems rather flat for some reason. I like the shaping on the trees and the snow drifts. ===== From gmccarter@hotmail.com: Ambitious effort. ===== From hfventer@ing.sun.ac.za: Nice reflection. ===== From file: LOL - reminds me of one of Calvin's suicidal snowmen.
