Wish you'd mentioned what raytracer you used...very pretty.

From xeo@home.com:
Nice waves!

=====
From manorton@tcnet.net:
Nice water, to bad I dont know what you rendered it in.

=====
From prizog@hotmail.com:
Wow!  I wold love to see this animated w/ a cooler sky!
=====
From jerry@hoboes.com:
As you mention, the sky needs work: Looks like it should have a lot more red
if this is sunset with those clouds? Nice water, though, and a really nice
sun reflection off of it. (Did you ever read a comic called "Meet Danny
Ocean"?)
=====
From Sean_Hamilton@amrcorp.com:
I like the sun and the water is awesome.  Too bad you didn't share how you made
it.

From gregj56590@aol.com:
Sea texture is so excellent that I lowered your score for not telling us how you
did it!

From amason@cs.uct.ac.za:

nice! simple but effective. water looks great.

From justin@scpmcs.org:
Fantastic job. I would have sworn it was a picture at first glance.

From vogelap@email.uc.edu:
The water looks great.

From bsieker@techfak.uni-bielefeld.de:
It would be nice to know what software you used. And "NURBS" and "displacement"
are techniques, but "Tools" means e. g. what modellers and image processing
software (if any) you used. I might have given a much higher score if only I
knew what you did. The sea sure looks realistic.

From pdolan@jps.net:
FANTASTIC! I love it!

=====
From johnson@pharmacy.arizona.edu:
Stunning realism. Very minimalist, but right on point.

=====
From jaime@ctav.es:
Due to the lack of the RENDERER USED info, I must suppose this is an actual
photography. :)
Seriously, the sea looks awesome. Yes, the sky is nice, but not in the same
level of realism than the ocean. Anyhow, a convincent sky it's much more
easy to do than a so realistic sea, but this round topic is water, I know.
Well, it's a pain that the poor tech info don't explain a bit more the
process (specially what renderer was used) (BMRT?).

=====
From Varyk@aol.com:
Well! Nothing but water here.  So much like a photo I at first thought it=
 WAS a photo.  The surface of the water close-up is rather matte-finished=
?  I wouldn't change the sky or anything.

=====
From djohnston@iname.com:
Nice waves, although I would have liked to know what renderer you used.

=====
From gmccarter@hotmail.com:
Amazingly real water surface.
What renderer did you use, Kodak? <g>

From Martial@Biosys.net:
This image calm down... |-) Beautiful calm, and great space.

This wasn't POV-Ray, was it?  Very pretty.

This scene is a very good example of how can nurbs be used for creating other
objects rather than the usual. The sea is spectacular!
