pretty colors

From jgrimbert@atos-group.com:
As stated in the description, it's missing some time to 
have a nice sky and some others textures :-(

Is Abandoned the same as Ruined?...eventually.  Very nice trace.  We all fall prey to the Competitions time limits.  Im sure that most of the winners would tell you that thier images were incomplete.  Good Job

From agage@csee.usf.edu:
The texturing is very good, though the transition from the thick weeks around
the shack to the clear ground is slightly jarring.

From chris@bluelectrode.com:
Excellant composition and great use of color.  Textures are exquisite and the modeling looks great.  Stark yet ruined.  Good job.

I really like the roof :)

From marlo.steed@uleth.ca:
Nice, I liked this one.  The old house is great, it looks more like photo.  The horizon and ground take away a bit.  There is something wrong with the ground... the red is too harsh.  The horizon could have used a haze.

From Alain.Culos@bigfoot.com:
Fantastic - except for the sky line - even in a desert there is a tiny bit of
water in the air and there is a bit of light scattering / attenuation.
A bit too verbose in your descriptions, I skipped some of them.

From jouni@mikrobitti.fi:
Nicely modelled house, I like it. The windmill is cool too, easy to
imagine you had fun modelling it. Overall, several good-looking objects
in the scene, but the ground is just too bright red to my taste. The 
sky is also a bit strange - when does it vary from blank white to 
completely black?

From jrcsurvey@aol.com:
A beautifully realized image! The strength of the saturated colors and 
tactile form make it hyperreal.  Just enough delicacy in the detail to get 
the job done. I congratulate you.

From chris_darcy@yahoo.com:
Good one

From StephenF@whoever.com:
It may seem odd, but what impresses me most about this 
picture is the sky... I don't think I've ever seen a sky 
this simple that I liked before... it's just kinda compelling 
and complements the rest of the picture.  The windmill is 
realistic looking.  Gives a good sense of adandonment 
too.

From jaime@ctav.es:
Very good! Amazing textures, with nice colors. Truly australian look. Only the shadow
parts look a bit too dark, perhaps.

=====
From clem@dhol.org:
Good textures. I really like the rocks and grass.  I like the 
lighting and the sky.  From the look of that ground, an iron 
mine may have done better there!  Although your Monet 
duplication was brilliant, I would like to see you render 
some wholly original images.

From sjlen@ndirect.co.uk:
Beautiful image.  The ground looks a bit too red, and the texture on the room
and the windmill looks the same, even if they were made of the same material
you'd expect them to look quite different and weather in different ways. 
Thoughe very simple I really like that sky, it gives a lot to the image.
