===== From jon@vulpecula.us: Good job technically...the fireplace etc. looks good. Overall, the image is just too dark...it's hard to see what's going on. It feels mysterious...but i'm not sure about "mystery." Also, it's impossible to understand the story by looking at the picture alone. Still...good job overall. ===== From rgow@lanset.com: Nicely done! A bit dark on my monitor, although that's in keeping with the atmosphere. ===== From thegreatbambeeno@yahoo.com: Pretty good, better than anything i could do ===== From pbrasolin@yahoo.it: A great image: I simply can't find a defect in it. PB ===== From ralf@treuherz.de: Very detailed textures and scene layout. Without reading the description it is hard to guess what is mysterious. ===== From info@michaelscholz.de: Wow, reading your text and looking at your image made me shiver. Well done! I also like the blue and red colors in your image. Definetly one of my favourite. ===== From the_dark_allies@hotmail.com: Great theme. I will be looking forward to studying the background of this image myself. If I were to suggest something, I’d like to see perhaps a person in here quivering/hiding in a corner in fear. ===== From llama009@hotmail.com: Simply stunning ===== From SRJeff@vbbn.com: Nice image, but almost impossible to see. I had to turn the brightness on my monitor all the way up to get the full effectk, and even then I couldn't see some of it. Add a couple of lights, or up the -ambient- light setting a little, and it'll be great. ===== From zio_tom78@hotmail.com: Great image! The use of the blue-yellow gradient is a very smart idea, the image is split into a warm half and a disquieting one. The fireplace looks very good. ===== From p_chan@shaw.ca: Very good scene overall. The detail on the fireplace is excellent. The roses in the centre seem too stiff. Also, the door seems a little awkward as it looks to be shorted than the opening (although that's probably the frame that blends in with the blackness though the door). ===== From emediez@emediez.com: I like the view of the topic, and the image too. Although the atmosphere is warm -despite the blue lights- it still conveys mystery, After all, mystery is not blue at all ===== From intertek@one.net: Way to go Hildur! ===== From glenn@mccarters.net: Superb attention to detail with authentic textures and models! The wood = floor is particularly well done. Image exhibits some graininess, especially around the doorway and the = fireplace. Something looks "off" with the scaling of the objects, but I = cannot pinpoint the problem. The fireplace (and everything around it) = is excellent. Very interesting technique with the color filter in front = of the camera. High marks for technique. ===== From file: I'll need a little more proof to believe you. ===== From file: Very good. Very detailed also. An interesting and mysterious idea. The furniture looks great - it could almost be a photograph. Well done. Notable for modelling, lighting
