===== From rgow@lanset.com: Oooh! Aaahh! Where are my sunglasses... That's definitely high contrast, but you seem to be handling it well! ===== From maarten_hofman@hotmail.com: The light took some getting used to, but worked out well. I like some of the details, like the wet floor. ===== From p.gibellini@teinos.com: Nice but too bright ===== From tek@evilsuperbrain.com: Excellent lighting, it looks really realistic. There's not a lot in the scene but everything that's there is almost perfect. ===== From xilo_m@hotpop.com: Nice image, but unfortunately it seems much like the render of a blue-print and there is no action, nothing is happening in your scene, it is empty of life and therefore feels artificial. ===== From marlo.steed@uleth.ca: The concept was good, the pool and the light created interest. The towel was spectacular. The water was realistic. The lighting caused some problems. Even if the sun was causing a bright reflection on the wall one would still expect to be able to see the landscape outside. ===== From hildurka@simnet.is: I like almost everything in your scene, the pool, the water and the wet floor, the towel and the sculpture. The only thing I miss are some more details in the ceiling, this beams don_t look like a convincing architectural structure. The light seemes almost magical, the radiosity works very well. One of my favorite in this round. The overexposure of the sunlit area gives in fact a convincing photo-realistic feel to this scene. Great work! ===== From p_chan@shaw.ca: The lighting in the scene is done well. The towel looks quite realistic in shape, but the texture lacks some "fuzziness." In my opinion, the water in the pool looks too turbulent. ===== From intertek@one.net: That's a nice place you made. I'd really like to sit there and enjoy the = sun. This is definitely one of my favorite pictures this round! I'd like = to make a few commits, which I hope are constructive. The metal handrail = looks very practical but it is the only thing made of that material. It = stands out. Everything else looks somewhat classical - there are lots of = marble and columns - but those bars make me think of the local swimming = pool - circa 1970. I think the cabinet on the right also looks a bit to modern for the = image. There's nothing wrong mixing old and new but it's not so easy to = do well. That floor looks really wet and slippery. Do the columns line = up with the half-circle wholes? I wonder what it would look like if the = columns continued either around to pool or engaged in the far wall. What = is the view? Is it of the ocean? ===== From slone@hiwaay.net: Beautiful, though the sculpture looks a little blobby (on purpose, I'm sure). I wonder if the perspective would look better (angled wall) with a two-point "architectural camera" perspective? ===== From r@ip68-11-81-210.no.no.cox.net: Nice use of light and shadow. Notable for lighting ===== From r@215-241.opf.slu.cz: Exellent lighting. Very interesting idea. Notable for lighting ===== From file: nice GI - but a little bit "washed out" scene.
