===== From maarten_hofman@hotmail.com: If Bryce is indeed landscaping software, it is a pity there isn't more landscape in this picture. Given the landscape here, I would also chose to live in a world of my own, and I would embrace loneliness in this way. I like the polished look of the world inside the bulb, though. ===== From darwallace@earthlink.net: With outdoors isolation like this a sense of time and decay are needed. Dull, pitted brass and scratches on the glass are needed. ===== From whitey@telefragged.com: i'm just confused now ===== From helene.dumur@free.fr: An amazing picture, I don't know if it symbolize loneliness. Nevertheless it's very, very nice. ===== From dapigg2000@yahoo.com: Very commendable. ===== From tim.nikias@gmx.de: This looks calm, not really lonely. ===== From rclee@oklahoma.net: I love your color contrasts! ===== From glenn@mccarters.net: Good quality for a first-time IRTC submission. Good design work. Seems to be very much a "made-up" image than a scene that was created to = tell a story. ===== From p_chan@shaw.ca: The globe (especially the base) has been modelled very well. A brighter moon (and one not covered by clouds) would be more consistent with the highlight on the glass of the globe. I find that the hint of human presence usually adds to the feeling of loneliness in a scene, so I would recommend putting a light in one of the tower's windows. ===== From StephenF@whoever.com: Very nice, especially considering the tools used. The glass looks good, and I like the shaping of the base. The simple background works well to not draw attention away from the globe. ===== From clem@dhol.org: Interesting concept. Kind of strange. Nice tower. Why are the fires there?
