===== From digitalburn@totalise.co.uk: love it ===== From pbourke@swin.edu.au: Excellent that it came out of the rendered just like that. Of course compositing would have been much easier and quicker. ===== From dvnss@mega.ist.utl.pt: I really think that magazine would make a huge hit!! ===== From marlo.steed@uleth.ca: Great concept. ===== From bbowen@cswnet.com: Great job of maximizing your assets. ===== From Alain.Culos@bigfoot.com: Very good. Very witty ;-)) certainly the best concept of all this round, top concept mark shared with Missing Maine. Your comments section is very well written too (ideas, structure and presentation). You're a cool dude. If the other voters are similar to me then you can only win ;-)) of course don't expect them to vote like I do, my choices very often end up being pretty different from the average choice. Your composition is overall simply the best of all, well *I* think so. Closely behing you come : 2/ Shipwreck near La Guaira 3/ Atlantic Still Life 4*2/ Sinking, Le Grand Bleu 5*2/ Missing Maine, The Great Wave The others are well distanced. ===== From StephenF@whoever.com: Cute concept... definitely the best of the 'sea without showing the sea' scenes. Good use of color to highlight the main elements of the picture. ===== From sjlen@ndirect.co.uk: A good looking image and well composed. ===== From delfeld@mailcity.com: I'm glad to see that you are actually trying to create with Max. Most images that come from it are formula and without thought or concern for knowing how to make a good rendering. The image has good suspense. The concept is good, but then all magazines are ugly to me, simply because of the bar code, side info, etc. that gets in the way fo a good pic. So what to do?
