From ekaiser@camden.tds.net:
good. Needs better textures. good modelling.

From jgrimbert@atos-group.com:
I found the sky a little too much purple :-)

From whhale@nvl.army.mil:
This is great!!!  My only complaint...Why does it look so grainy?

=====
From agage@csee.usf.edu:
Very nice.  Something about the tree line doesn't feel right, but the rest
works out very well.

=====
From chris@bluelectrode.com:
Detailed, yet simplistic.  The wood texture could have been a little browner.  Overall, good job.

From ddombrow@vt.edu:
This one my favorites. Reminds me of Andrew Wyeth's "Christina".

From marlo.steed@uleth.ca:

Nicely done.

From mibmlr@hotmail.com:
Fantastic clouds! The barn looks a little airy, almost like you could blow it down. It needs some more rafters, supports,... Wagon is good.

=====
From Alain.Culos@bigfoot.com:
The interpretation of the theme is not the most original, but the realisation is
just fantastic. One of the best, if not the best submission of this round.
Turned out first in my final vote !
Clouds, this stupid wood preservative that kills all the colour, iron bound cart
wheels, the field, trees in the distance, and the sagging barn, yes everything
looks so well so much in harmony with the run down feeling that this scene
provides and nature power being slowly restored.

From jouni@mikrobitti.fi:
Nice interpretation there, a welcome change from the usual 
house-and-stones-stuff this round. I like the board texture on the wagon,
it looks fairly real. Good use of CC's bending macro there, by the way. 
I must say that the walls look a bit too thin, but maybe it's just my 
eyes. Do you guys have that high-magenta and -cyan clouds out there? 
At least Finnish clouds are considerably less CM-saturated. ;-) 

I think the image must've suffered slightly from JPEG conversion, since
there are quite a few "wandering pixels" in the foreground. Too bad, as 
the hay looks pretty nice.

From jrcsurvey@aol.com:
I love to see that cloud technique understood and used well.  You've kept the 
whole image simple and effective.  

=====
From chris_darcy@yahoo.com:
Nice picture.
Great clouds.
Good feel.

=====
From StephenF@whoever.com:
The sky in this picture is impressive... it has a real 
feeling of depth to it, which adds a great deal to the 
realism of the overall scene.  The barn really looks like it 
could collapse at any moment.  

=====
From jaime@ctav.es:
Wow! Awesome composition! I like very much the view, and also the arrangement.
I only disagree a bit in the coice of some colors, but that's a taste matter...
but what I most like is to see how a simple idea of mine can derivate on such
nice clouds. They are really "puffy clouds": I really like them... thanks for
the mention, but you really mastered the technique. I must look at the code...

=====
From clem@dhol.org:
The clouds and grass are great.  The tree line works very 
well.  The modelling and textures of the barn and wagon 
work too.  I am impressed with the layout of this image.  
The details of this image, like the gentle curves of the 
ground, all add to the effect.  I'm looking for a suggestion 
or criticism to make, but I just can't find anything.  Excellent 
job.  Your best work yet.

=====
From mar@physics.usyd.edu.au:
Great barn, great sky. Very good modelling on the wagon and grass, and the tree
is fine for the size it shows up at. This is really good. The sagging barn
effect is briliant.

=====
From sjlen@ndirect.co.uk:
Beautiful work here, great sky, nice looking meadow, the method you've used
for the trees has worked well and really adds something to the image. 
The only problem with this is colour, too much gray on the barn, the wood
colour is too close to that of the roof.  Good use of Chris' bend macro.
