Very realistic !

From uwezi@geocities.com:
The plants are too tall in my opinion. They tend to reduce the canyon 
to a drainage trench which would then make it a bridge for ants.....

From jake@snafu.de:
Best water ever I've seen.

From jabeck@bellsouth.net:
Can't wait to study the source.  Love the water.

From bobfranke@halcyon.com:
Great realism.  At first I thought the sky was from a 
photo, but then, I remembered who the artist is. The 
reeds seem a bit repetitious but the water and canyon 
are great.  As usual, very creative use a height fields.

From rbenjam2@tampabay.rr.com:
All I can say is that it's really disgusting to see how much better this image
is than my own.  It's main problem is that I didn't do it.  I'm not sure that
its tie in with the theme is as strong as the rest of the elements of the
picture.

From curtis_cooper@hotmail.com:
So realistic, absolutely amazing.

=====
From sammy@cube.net:
very beautifull picture. Pure fotorealism ... too bad it's a slightly too
stretched
meaning of the theme imo.

From archangel@wxs.nl:
That water looks VERY realistic! The bridge is a bit too small, but the total
looks quite good!

=====
From tglover@nettally.com:
Nice image.  Good modelling of canyon walls and love the water -- looks like
some rivers I've rafted down -- the calmer sections, that is.

I've had good success with connecting HF using reflected versions of the
same HF.  Migfht be easier than your camera moves.

Matter of english, in your P.S. I guess you mean non-intentional rather than
actually intentional. Or maybe "in no way intentional".
How is one supposed to comment such an entry. I wonder is it fair to allow
these
experts into these competitions ?
A brilliant picture as for most I have seen from Jaime. Very realistic looking.
I'm surprised you went for several shots for the height fields. Why not do a
long narrow picture ? That would be easy as well and give pretty much the same
result albeit in one pass. You can define both the image dimensions and camera
in a size ratio of something like 1:10, and that's the job done.

habn't this sean appeared in about 5 Xena/Hercules episodes???

Finally, some descent looking clouds using povray.

=====
From gmccarter@hotmail.com:
Elements of this scene seem totally photorealistic.
So how did you make the reed meshes?

=====
From mark.wagner17@gte.net:
The plants are too regularly spaced.

From martialrameaux@multimania.com:
Always so nice image Jaime et j'aime ;-) Martial

=====
From joergnick@aol.com:
Whow, the water is really moving if you look very close. One of the best water
creations I ever saw.

=====
From clem@dhol.com:
Very artistic.  Scary bridge with that break.  Excellent 
plants and rocks.  Water is good, but a bit solid looking.

=====
From mar@physics.usyd.edu.au:
This is a photo you took on your last vacation, right? Very realistic, although
I'm not sure I want to risk crossing that bridge... there seems to be a piece
of the planking missing in the middle.

Beautiful scene.  The Rock texture on the walls is superb and I love the sky. 
On the down side...It seems that the water is a little out of scale.  Perhaps
smaller waves to give the effect of width and depth.
Notable for textures
