===== From rgow@lanset.com: Good idea. Maybe try spacing the buildings further apart to show streets and to give them some depth. ===== From maarten_hofman@hotmail.com: A well chosen moment, but not much detail. ===== From the_dark_allies@hotmail.com: I would count this image under the current topic theme, but would find it harder to believe the cubes were buildings. You may want to space them out randomly and study some real buildings for a while. The particles also could do with a make over. ===== From bsieker@techfak.uni-bielefeld.de: If you want to simulate a camera high up, then use a camera high up. Neither do the buildings look like buildings, nor does the plane look like one. Aircraft at the time never had curved wings, but only straight lines. And Hiroshima was not a collection of uniform, tightly-packed skyscrapers. At the time the bomb exploded, that plane was already far away. ===== From bpjackson@woh.rr.com: sorry, but this is just a bunch of boxes and a single plane model . ===== From david.madore@ens.fr: The buildings are just too boring. Simple blocks of nondescript material don't make it. At least they could have been shown shattering under the shock wave, or something. ===== From clem@dhol.org: Very good potential idea. The minimalist image is very interesting visually. The major flaw is that without the text file, you would probably never make the Hiroshima connection and it would be easy to miss the concept of bombing altogether. ===== From MarkNitschke@gmx.de: Seeing the title, I expected a picture of Hiroshima as it looked like in the moment the bomb blew up. A real looking picture. So this is less than I expected. The idea could have been not that bad, but at least the technical aspect could be much better (the plane looks very ... strange). ===== From p_chan@shaw.ca: The idea is a good one, but the stylized buildings don't really give the sense of the historical event you refer to. Adding some randomness to the duplicating of the buildings could also improve the scene - the patter of duplication is quite obvious in the current scene. ===== From slone@hiwaay.net: Nice style; placing the explosion mostly offscreen was a good choice. Odd shape to the plane, though it_s not out of place in this image. ===== From noe.falzon@tiscali.fr: This is impressive. And frightening.
