===== From helene.dumur@free.fr: What about the topic ? ===== From dbn_3@yahoo.com: (1) I really like the detail in the river. The water looks great. The riverbottom looks great. The leaves on the top look great. (2) I like the color of the leaves. I have not used the tree macros you mentioned, but I wonder if you could add "texure" (changes in the normal or using isosurfaces or something) to the trunk of the trees. Even trees with smooth bark have peeling parts. The trunk of the tree directly across the river from the camera looks oddly smooth. (3) Finally the bank looks oddly smooth -- though you did a great job of putting leaves and plants on it. ===== From bertram.henze@t-online.de: Somthing is strange about the lighting of the trees (ambient?). The rubber ducks, being dead objects just resembling alive ones, remind me of the corpses floating down the river in "war of the worlds". ===== From s.day@uel.ac.uk: Nice image, the water/sky/trees reflection is excellent. ===== From p_chan@shaw.ca: Good overall image. A few minor details could use some improvement, such as the tree trunks (look too smooth), the yellow leaf in the foreground and some of the red leaves on the tree in the upper right (also too smooth). ===== From jyrehby@hotmail.com: Pros: Original and interesting concept, outstanding modelling effort, effective composition. Very good textures and colors. Cons: Almost none! I would like to see what it looks like without the fog. I believe it doesn't add much, if at all, to the picture.
