Wow! I saw this develop on the newsgroups but this final image has still blown me away! The snow looks really realistic, and the glow on the igloo is a nice touch. The clouds look almost photographic. Really nice work.

From maarten_hofman@hotmail.com:
Ah, the ice field (I had predicted that these would appear in this competition). And a good one at that. I'm not sure what the glow at the igloo is, but the it makes the picture mysterious.

The sense of *permanent* loneliness is good.

From awilcox@dreampeach.com:
The ice texture turned out very well.  I love the clouds.

From novotek@web.de:
wow - what a cloud-construction... looks nearly real with the sun.

From ruy@hipernet.com.br:
Snow doesn't mount like that, does it? Otherwise, a very good image.

This one is an excellent entry.
Best regards.

This one's good all over. I like the sky and vast expanse of the scenery.

Really beautiful accomplishment :-)

Is this a photo ? ;)

From suso@suso.org:
  That's a really impressive sky. Especially since you did it all in PovRay.
  Perhaps the snow closer to the camera should have been a bit whiter.  Nice
  image though.

From rclee@oklahoma.net:
I really like this image!

From glenn@mccarters.net:
Good work, but the sun glinting off the snow and the glow around the =
igloo seems a little unnatural.
The sky is picture-perfect.  So is the sun.

=====
From bill@apocalypse.org:
Good choice of resolution, colors are nicely done as is sky/sun (realistic 
yet artful).  The snow/ice field has a nice shape, but the texture feels 
more lunar.  Still, it's appealing, just a little unreal.

=====
From p_chan@shaw.ca:
The sun and clouds look excellent.  The shape of the 
terrain looks very good, but I feel the texture doesn't 
give the idea of snow.  I guess I just doesn't seem 
reflective/bright enough, but to get a realistic look you'd 
probably have to use radiosity and drive up the render 
time quite a bit.

From StephenF@whoever.com:
Nice sky and landscape... lighting works well.

=====
From jl@artcom-gmbh.de:
Very nice modeling of the snow landscape. Nice lighting, too. Looks
very realistic.

=====
From clem@dhol.org:
Good concept.  The igloo should stand out a bit more and 
show some detail.  I like the lighting.

From r@p508e996c.dip.t-dialin.net:
Wow, this is realy cool. I didn't think that povray can do so reallistic light effects
