Lovely and funny, it's a very very good picture

From chrisbianchi@earthlink.net:
Nice, but what really makes the image is the realism of the animals. Since they
were not your design, I had to dock a few points for that. The sand looks
great. Check the iguana's right front foot, though. It goes "through" the sand.
A few footprints would be expected.

From marlo.steed@uleth.ca:
The concept it great.  The image is interesting; on the one hand it has this
great feel of realism with textures of the lizard and turtle and ground. 
However the motion blur on the ball takes away from that.  If that looked more
realistic this may have been the best image of the group - but that just looks
odd.  Still a very interesting image.

From a.martone@retepnet.it:
The "toy" uses only a little space in the image. Also, the "moving ball" effect
is a little disaster. Some little defects (turtle eye, apple) are distracting.
Sigh! The original idea was indeed interesting...

From rgow@lanset.com:
Cute concept & great looking sand & rocks. The animals don't pose quite right,
feet don't touch the ground.

From jacoons@ameritech.net:
Extra points for realism. Excellent turtle, sand and wall texture.

From enrique.sahagun@uam.es:
the interaction between the sand and light in your image is the best thing I
have seen in this round. I have read how to make it but I stiil dont
understand. Congratulations.

From jgrimbert@free.fr:
How does all that relate to the topic ?
It seems there is no relation between the objects.

From jouni@mikrobitti.fi:
Interesting concept and it looks good, but you're slipping from the topic...

Very interesting.
A bit static the tortoise.

My favorite image this round.  Great textures, good modelling.

From bertram.henze@t-online.de:
The sand is done very well. However, in contrast with that, the animals do not
look "alive", though I cannot tell why (reptiles are able to sit motionless for
hours, but normally they look alive anyway).
