===== From djhouy@paw.za.org: Considering that you used only conventional textures, I think it is extraordinary. There are a few things I don't like about the image, but it would just be nit-picking. This is my personal favourite so far. ===== From irtc@tomandlu.co.uk: A bit small, but a lovely image. A more unconventional camera angle and maybe a figure or similiar might be nice. ===== From the_dark_allies@hotmail.com: I like this one. Seems to have too much repetition but still one of the better images I have seen so far this contest. ===== From bertram.henze@t-online.de: Good material credibility, a bit dark. Well... out of place? Ever been to Venice? ===== From gromit@ix.netcom.com: nice use of something natural to illustrate the theme ===== From mermster@gmail.com: Venice is pretty wet right? ===== From j.a.bremer@student.tudelft.nl: I dont really see how a river next to a street is 'out of place'. But maybe that's because we have lots of canals in our city ===== From slone@hiwaay.net: Very nice street scene, especially the buildings on the left. Would like a larger image. The water seems a little odd, especially near the camera. Good lighting. ===== From file: Notable for composition
