Ah, last minute inspiration, yes I know all about that.

It's a good image, particularly considering how quickly it was put together. I like the materials and the photons.

Some of the objects look rather out of place. The idea of having a "solitaire"
game representing loneliness is good, though.

This image has a very high color-temp.  Looking at it, im not sure what is signified by the half burried hand and the game, with the cube.  Some nice artwork but tends to give me trouble interpreting it as loneliness

we have to rate images on a 1-20 basis.  if there were a option for negative points, i would use them on this image.

A good depiction of Loneliness, both for the lone stone and for the lone person playing the game. I like it. There are some improvements to be made technically, though, aren't there?

What would the RAYTRACING competition be without shiney glass or metal balls? Very good ideas here. It's got a good barren look to it.

Good image.  I liked the wind blown sand.

This seems off-topic to me.

The sand heightfield looks excellent, although it is 
maybe a little too straight overall.  I like how you have 
placed some sand into the holes of the gameboard.  The 
texture on the hand/arm is the only thing that could 
really use improvement.  It almost seems metallic to me.  
Oh... you never mentioned if you figured out the exact 
mathematical formula for the minimum angle between the 
spheres at the edge, so if you want it, I think I've 
figured it out.

I like the sand/dust.

Abstract.  A bit borderline.  The Mengermania is 
distracting.
