===== From loomsbury@yahoo.com: The sky looks nice... now try creating that without an image map? The buildings have too high an ambient light. The textures for the buildings could use some more detail too. I really like the rest though. ===== From pmccombs@hotmail.com: Excellent models. Maybe a little bit much ambient light. ===== From scarmig@ohmss.com: Beautiful picture and very well done. My only complaint is that the sky feels flat up closer to the viewer. I'm not sure how you could get around that and still retain the great cloud picture though. ===== From tony@j4tb.com: Your buildings look really nice the windows look very real. The trollies and tracks look nice too. The lighting seems a little off. The buldings are too bright for the sky perhaps if the sky were darker. I would tone down the trolly lights as well. Your street lights and Signs look nice as well. ===== From whhale@nvl.army.mil: Well laid out. Good sense of realism and placement. I especially like the camera position. ===== From jd@surveyor.in-berlin.de: The sky is a big WOW, but it doesn't match that much with the scenery lightning. The scenery is excellent with good details, but a bit too clear for me. Nevertheless, excellent overall. One of my three favs. ===== From Stickgod01@aol.com: I like how the buildings all slant toward the middle, bringing the focus into the tower part of the building. Nicely done. ===== From christophe.bouffartigue@libertysurf.fr: Very nice. ===== From marlo.steed@uleth.ca: Very nice textures... nice natural lighting.. well done. ===== From tom@tomandlu.force9.co.uk: Near-perfect. ===== From tglover@nettally.com: Really nice lighting job. ===== From StephenF@whoever.com: Very pretty... a nice detailed scene. The sky has a good stormy look to it, and the building in the center looks great (a closer view of the top half of it would make a good picture all by itself). My only criticism is that the streetcars, although nicely detailed, seem a bit simplistic in contrast to the center building. Overall, I really like this one, although I have a weakness for streetcars which may affect my judgment. (grin!) ===== From djohnston@iname.com: The only real suggestion I feel I ca n make here is to add some 'grime' to the image. Everyhting looks too new, too polished. Very good job getting the sky photo into the image som seemlessly. The only thing that gives it away is that it looks just too realisitic. :) ===== From tonyv@iafrica.com: Lovely atmosphere. I like it. ===== From mar@physics.usyd.edu.au: This is spectacular. Absolutely gorgeous image, with immaculate modelling and interesting lighting. My only problem with this is that it looks like a still life, not a working city. People hustling to and fro, and a few pigeons, would help this towards thematic perfection. ===== From file: Beautiful image. 'Christmas Story' was hilarious!
