===== From maarten_hofman@hotmail.com: Sharp, good idea and a fair execution. ===== From tyler@cg1.org: Like the concept, but can't escape the feeling that the grapmophone looks out of place. A more 'earthy' setting would have helped. Rather plain. ===== From cmiles79@iinet.net.au: Great idea for a picture. I like how you did the background. Clever. ===== From rgow@lanset.com: Heh heh, nice doggie! Good modeling, texturing. Background could be a little softer. ===== From suso@suso.org: Good idea. This would have worked well for the Contrast topic too. I think that you should have left the fog environment out of it though. Just a lone spotlight on the objects in a dark room would have worked. ===== From jjaguar@worldnet.att.net: Very creative! I really like this concept. ===== From jimbobjim@blueyonder.co.uk: This one took me by surprise and made me smile, great work. ===== From irtc_mail@yahoo.co.uk: I don't like the framing here that leaves 3/4 of the image empty. ===== From slone@hiwaay.net: Nice idea and good modeling and lighting. Backdrop is a little odd, the objects might work better in a "real" room. Very nice metal texture on the horn. ===== From r@pcw2141f.hisd.harris.com: Notable for composition, originality ===== From r@toronto-hse-ppp3761522.sympatico.ca: First Place Notable for composition, modelling, originality
