From sshaw@fas.harvard.edu:
It is a nice image, but (as you point out) not made for this competition.
Not only is it then off topic, but it also violates the rules.

From nijman@nmtrix.com:
Good camera angle, nice ambience. Bad texturing especially on the rocks.

From gregj56590@aol.com:
Quite simple, yet retains feel of those professionally painted sci-fi novel
covers.
Landscape at bottom could use some improvement, not exactly sure what.

From mar@physics.usyd.edu.au:
Nice image, but straight science fiction rather than "unbelievble". The
ship looks great and the planets are good. Any extra work should go into the
foreground... seems a bit undetailed compared to the rest.

From johnson@pharmacy.arizona.edu:
Nicely done ship and planets.

From gmccarter@hotmail.com:
Vivid and impressive.

From sdevet@istar.ca:
The vast expanse of white really makes this image jump the bohundary
from nice to excellent! I really like it!

From peter@table76.demon.co.uk:
This looks almost like a book cover... like work by Chris Foss, or Angus McKie.
Good picture.

Good picture except for the white stuff.
