===== From skipt1@aol.com: 3DSMAX? At what point does this photograph turn into a rendering? Please do not falsify your descriptions and expect to receive any sort of score from it. ===== From tek@evilsuperbrain.com: Okay, that's a photo. And not even a very good one. ===== From noe.falzon@tiscali.fr: No explanations... Looks like a blend of photos to me... ===== From AlaskaS@gmx.de: Really good modeling and nice texturing! But some lines to creation and idea would have been nice ===== From emkaah@yahoo.com: Very photorealistic. But then, it is a photo. ===== From rgow@lanset.com: This looks like a rules violation to me. What is 3d? I see a photoshop composite. ===== From g.ficara@oltrelinux.com: IMHO, without the moon this image could pass as a photo-shot... Great realism! ===== From hawatino2010@yahoo.com: very realistic ===== From i-mcnamara@cornellcollege.edu: Awesome work on this one. The sky is amazing, the moon is a great touch, and the cliff dwellings are amazingly modeled. Great work, keep sending in the entries for us to gawk over. ===== From enrique.sahagun@uam.es: I have been looking at your image for a long time trying to find something wrong but it is very difficult. Finally I have find something which it is not very important. In my opinion the moon (and its light) is not well connected with the rest of the image. ===== From klynn@telefish.net: I need more information about how the image was created! ===== From jacoons@ameritech.net: This image is realistic, but appear *TOO* realistic to be a real image. That either means it really *IS* excellent or has been fabricated. I choose to believe that it is realistic and give you the benefit of the doubt. ===== From ericf@foothill.net: First I looked at the time for your render, looked the size of the image that was loading, and wondered why such a long render for a small image. When it finished loading I understood. Very nice image, feels very real. The sky texture is especially nice. ===== From raytracing@grayproductions.net: Raytrace that and I'll really be impressed. ===== From darwallace@earthlink.net: The moon is too bright given the time of day. ===== From file: Hum Notable for lighting, modelling ===== From file: This one of the most photo-realistic images of the round. Would be interested to know how you did it. ===== From file: This is really good. I wish you had said more about its creation.
