===== From rgow@lanset.com: Post processing in photoshop is not allowed. By your description, this appears to be a rules violation. ===== From maarten_hofman@hotmail.com: Amazing reflection of the other side into the building, as well as in the water. The people are placed well and quite effective. ===== From p.gibellini@teinos.com: People are too big ===== From raytracing@grayproductions.net: Not sure you were totally up on the rules, parts of this image appear to have been added in Photoshop post-processing, which isn't allowed, unfortunately. ===== From tek@evilsuperbrain.com: I'm afraid you've post processed this image so it's not acceptable in the IRTC. ===== From xilo_m@hotpop.com: You're on the right track to make beautiful images, but unfortunately you don't seem to have an artistic sense... An artistic image would have movement, would tell a story, have a past and a future... and all this in a still image... When looking at your picture, I see a very nice render of a blue-print! Try working on the concept of you future IRTC submissions! ===== From marlo.steed@uleth.ca: Nice modeling (really liked the relflection on the windows) but it sounds like you did too much in Photoshop to satisfy the criteria for this competition. Your shadows on the trees faked me out - nice job on the touch up. ===== From hildurka@simnet.is: This is a complex scene with myriads of details. The overall scene lookes like a real world architectural presentation. The trees however look like they have been added/retouched later in a paint program. I don_t know if that is a violation of the rules of this competition. Otherwise a good composition with clever lighting. ===== From fergie_2002_@msn.com: oooooh reflectiony ===== From chris_hormann@gmx.de: Looks good but there are strong indications that certain things (reflections, some of the plants) are added afterwards in a paint program. The text file does nothing to explain this. ===== From p_chan@shaw.ca: In the future, please be more specific about what was done using Photoshop, as the rules prohibit altering the rendered image, with a few exceptions. (Sections 1.c., 3.c. and 5.f. of the rules, http://www.irtc.org/stills/rules.html). ===== From r@cache-edi-hsi.cableinet.co.uk: oooooh complex! Notable for modelling, textures, lighting ===== From r@ip68-11-81-210.no.no.cox.net: Nice composition. People seem disproportionately large Notable for composition ===== From file: Very nice, living composition, with a nice true shadow. Notable for composition, lighting ===== From file: a nice one - but a little bit "out of texture". i like the macro-perspective. Notable for modelling, lighting
