Spectacular use of light and shadow.  I like the sunset feel to this, and the
specular reflection off of the water is great.

 A nice warm environment, htough the landscape needs to be smoothed

From witoslaw@kki.net.pl:
Interesting and realistic...

From jerry@hoboes.com:
Very nice lighting, sky, fog, and landscape.

From Sean_Hamilton@amrcorp.com:
The mountains and sky are beautiful.  So beautiful that they become the center
of
attention instead of the water.

From vogelap@email.uc.edu:
Beautiful!

Nice lighting

From bsieker@techfak.uni-bielefeld.de:
Truly amazing and enchanting landscape. Well done.
Although the light source lighting the mountain in the background from the
front and a mountain somewhat close from the rear is not realistic at all, it
makes for very dense atmosphere. The fog is just about perfect.

From pdolan@jps.net:
Good, would have gotten perfect artistic score were it not for the "jagged"
hills in the lower-left corner

From jaime@ctav.es:

I'm writting this after our last messages. So I must repit the same. Your
landscapes are cool. Very cool. Too cool perhaps for pov, it looks more like
Bryce, which makes more easily very good landscapes and skies. The only pain
is the too well defined water border, but I know that a more realistic one is
very difficult.

Thinking on it, I figured a method you can try. Something similar to what I've
done for this round. Think on this: if you make a copy of this scene, but
making the mountains totally black, removing the sky and replacing the water
texture by another with the same parameters for the normal but in a pigment
statement from black to white, to obtain a nice height_field of the water
cutted by the terrain (placing the camera exactly above). You could then load
the resulting TGA into a paint program to paint "ripples" around the water hf
borders, as if they were beating the coast.

Sorry for the hard and quick explanation, hope I've expressed it well. Bye!

nice scene.  Wish there was some way to lose the faceting at the far righ=
t, rest looks great.

From djohnston@iname.com:
You did a very good job here with the water and they way it merges ot the
land. I also like the nice warm colours.

From gmccarter@hotmail.com:
Wow, a gorgeous (but barren) landscape.  Interesting lighting -- which direction
is the sun, in front of the camera or behind?

=====
From Martial@Biosys.net:
Yeah ! Great pov and beautiful edit scene ! Thanks for this moment of
calm. :-)

=====
From ethelm@bigfoot.com:
Maybe you were just playing with three components but the result is a very
artistic image. The composition, colour and lighting make it stand out as one
of the best.

Very pretty scene, quite impressive.  Good sense of scale.

nice feeling of distance in this image
Notable for lighting, composition

From r@dialup-78-168.infoserv.net:
Wow! - usually that words would do, but this image deserves more. Even though
the mountains take the scene, not water, it's quite good and relaxing to see
this image... excellent work on the lighting.

Very smooth. I guess there wasn't much wind that day? The lighting looks really
mysterious.. nice!

A good image. The height-field in the front looks like smoothing was turend
off.
