===== From fmurr@free.fr: I like the whole staging of your scene. ===== From jouni@mikrobitti.fi: Well, I must admit, it does look good... The connection to Asia could be stronger though. Now it is almost just like any landscape image, with a Japanese bridge thrown in. You could've done a bit more to enhance the water texture. ===== From marlo.steed@uleth.ca: A nice bridge, well done. The folage needed some work on the details... for instance, the leaves don't look very natural poking out of that tree that way and the ferns look like each branch is sprouting out of the ground rather than clumped together in a more natural way. I know sometimes nature is like that but... it might just be me. ===== From emediez@emediez.com: Nice spot to depict the theme. A higher contrast would improve textures greatly, as well as rotating them -those in the bridge-. Also, leaves are a bit rigid; if they could "move" with the wind, they would give more vitality to the image. An excellent beginning though. ===== From daffy-duck@worldnet.att.net: The wood on the bridge is very nice. The background haze is nice too. The plants in the foreground look a little rigid. ===== From lrwii@joplin.com: I like the bridge. The trees could have been done better. The ferns are to uniform in size and shape. The water in the background needs to smooth out to convay distance. ===== From chris_hormann@gmx.de: Interesting composition, nice modeling work on the bridge. The plants look very geometric and the water seems quite 'oily' ===== From jrcsurvey@aol.com: I like this one. While the raytracer "signature" is evident everywhere, the picture as a whole adds up to a charming, decorative result. Very pleasing. ===== From r@proxy1.ntu.edu.sg: The leaves aren't authentic enough. They seem to grow in strange way.
