What kind of candles are behind the monks? Some sort of 500 watt candles used in flash bulbs?

From agage@mines.edu:
Very unique, and I like the use of color and light.  The modeling, while simple,
is adequate for this image.

From Martin.Magnusson.7121@student.uu.se:
Excellent! I jusrt love tha atmosphere and focal blur and light!
Very very good indeed. But the connection to the topic is pretty weak, I'm afraid.

From jjanger@mail.cspp.edu:
   For someone that was just playing around, this is quite a good looking image.

From dormammu@erols.com:
I don't really see how this is a "Night" picture... is it night outside?

Very pretty.. good artisitic and tech scores, low theme score.

From bill@apocalypse.org:
cool effect, though perhaps overdone

=====
From ethelm@bigfoot.com:
Nice atmosphere.
The stained glass window is good.
Good composition.

From gmccarter@hotmail.com:
Quite artistic, spiritual, and mysterious.
Very fine image.

From uwe.post@gmx.de:
Dichte Atmosphaere. 20 fuer artistic merit. Aber wo ist die Nacht?

From djconnel@flash.net:
This is one of the most stunning and effective raytracings
I have ever seen.  I keep going back and looking at it --
it is extremely well done.  The perspective, lighting,
the use of blur.... all excellent.

But what does it have to do with night?  I see no night
reference here.  This would be a runaway winner of
a "religion" round.

From cfusner@enter.net:
Hmmm... awefully bright light for candles, but the image looks spectacular
nonetheless.

=====
From econoltd@thezone.net:
Nice "haunting" effect from this picture.

Breathlessly beautiful.  What was the inspiration?  Notre-Dame?
Notable for composition, lighting, modelling, originality, textures

Off topic.  Nice colors and wall.  Monk not bad.  Big dark shaft wrecks the image.  Way too hazy.  This comment by clem@dhol.com.
