===== From trioker@wanadoo.fr: Nice textures and use of lightning. The sword and some blocks looks too much big compared with the tower. ===== From whhale@nvl.army.mil: This one really struck me. I like it but do have a couple of suggestions. 1. Crumble the wall a little 2. The far tower could use some damage. ===== From marlo.steed@uleth.ca: Nice atmosphere. ===== From Alain.Culos@bigfoot.com: Very nice, but what about a little description of what the image is, to let us know what came through your mind ? ===== From jouni@mikrobitti.fi: Very nice ruin, the tower looks real enough, I think one of the best this round. I would've liked to read your description of the image; what is this tower we're looking at? The sun flare could be a bit more conservative IMO, its effect on the general color of the image hides some details I would've liked to see better. ===== From StephenF@whoever.com: This picture has a nice mood to it, and the texturing and shaping on the ruined stone tower works for me. I wonder if the sun might be a little too blinding, though. Other than that, very pretty. ===== From jaime@ctav.es: Lighting is very nice. Arrangement is good too. Your time was worth... what I find not so good is the proportion between some objects (for example, the sword seems really big compared with the tree and the tower). ===== From clem@dhol.org: A good image, but the mist and flare detract. A clearer view of the interesting textures on the ruined tower would be much better than the cheap dramatic effect. The tree is good too. I don't think the rock "pillow" in the foreground adds anything and the ground plane needs more detail. The tower, however, is quite good and the rubble isn't bad (is that a sword? why?). ===== From mar@physics.usyd.edu.au: Is that water in the right foreground? It looks like it's floating above the ground level... Otherwise a well modelled and textured image, though compositionally a bit bare. Some more objects wouldn't go astray. ===== From sjlen@ndirect.co.uk: I like this a lot. Is that king Arthur's sword on the ground? The only suggestions I'd make for improvement are that the background to the left of the scene seems to be a bit too bright, you might be able to fix this by darkening the colour of the fog by just a touch, this would probably make the stone wall to the right more visible aswell. This image was well worth the time and effort you put into it, great results.
