It's a good one, but similarity to "Wet Bird" is disturbing. The color balance
has also become suboptimal because of the gaudiness of the signs. The idea of
using two different worlds (the restaurant and the street) is good, but I think
additional contrast between them would've added the needed tension to the
image. Definitely good, but far from your best achievements.

Un peu decu par le "manque" (tout est relatif) d'originalite.
Il manque la petite touche "gillestranesque" (un terme a la mode :)).
Mais comme d'hab, techniquement epoustouflant.

An excellent interpretation and an use of textures that should used as an
example.

From chris_hormann@gmx.de:
Impressive as usual, and that with a really difficult concept.  As you already
mentioned the lighting is somewhat problematic, the contrasts don't always fit,
for example it should be much darker below the cars.  It would be interesting
to see it with radiosity illumination, but this would probably lead to huge
problems with speed, memory and artefacts.

The sense of density is something we associate with urban+Asia.  Your 
understanding that our current sense of Asian culture is refracted through  
the emergence of an  international  Asian culture is insightful.

What should I say. Gilles Tran is genius in rendering photo-realistic picture.I
wonder is him ever been to Hong Kong? Or is him stick very well in what is
happening in Asia? Wow, there is even Faye's poster, Asai most popular pop
singer but I suppose very rare-known in Western world. Gilles Tran must have
done some research. The only flaw is the humans. Very very well done!!
