===== From maarten_hofman@hotmail.com: I knew that there would be a wolf entered into this competition. I like the way the light moves through the trees. ===== From cherii@att.net: Very nice trees and atmosphere. ===== From darwallace@earthlink.net: I don't know what kind of media you are using... type 4 is typical for air. Make the media as sparse as possible while maintaining an effect. The media is so thick as to turn night nearly into day. ===== From : Very nice artistic image. I like the evening feel in this one. Some improvement on texture contrast would bump this image up another notch. ===== From ruy@hipernet.com.br: I like the concept a lot. In a round filled with cliches, this one is breath of fresh air. ===== From p.olice@free.fr: Nice modelling, very good lighting. The composition though is too "flat", too centered on the woolf. I suggest keeping the angle, but adopting a vertical format, and bringing the wolf more to the side of the image. ===== From dapigg2000@yahoo.com: Very very good work here. ===== From rclee@oklahoma.net: Good lighting. Nice tree texture except for the stump on the left, some problems there. ===== From jrcsurvey@aol.com: You have got some good effects going on, especially the tree bark and media.= It gives a sense of desolation which is related to loneliness. ===== From glenn@mccarters.net: Good work on the wolf and the very rough bark of the trees. The shadowy = light and the grey tones convey the theme pretty well. ===== From bill@apocalypse.org: Excellent use of shadows and color, trees look great. Wolf isn't bad. ===== From p_chan@shaw.ca: The lighting in the scene looks excellent. It really gives the feel of a moonlit forest. The isosurface trees in the foreground look good, but the closest tree (far left) has some issues with the top disintegrating. I'm not too sure how that could be easily fixed - you'd probably have to spend hours tweaking the noise function. I don't know if it would be possible to remove the "disjoint" parts using CSG to cut of chunks of the tree. Might be worth a shot. ===== From jl@artcom-gmbh.de: Nice lighting effects. The stump in the bottom left corners looks a bit as if there are pieces floating in the air. ===== From clem@dhol.org: Nice semiabstract image. I like the fact that the pose isn't the overdone "on a hilltop howling at the moon" scene. In fact, this wolf is howling away from the light source. The broken trees and atmosphere of decay amplify the message well.I have been i places much like this and you convey the feel well. ===== From r@131.san-francisco-13-14rs.ca.dial-access.att.net: Notable for composition, lighting
