55 - A Little Canyon

Robert Dittrich

"Great image, but maybe a bit too sharp."

"Great terrain, but the surface map really convinced me. The shadows are great, and the vantage point really fits. the water is too still, though."

"Good perspective; very sharp and detailed; very nice, natural colors; very... real!"

"The water/terrain combination is great here - looks so realistic (and slimy, yuk)!"

"The water-green-algae effect of the stream is beautiful. Not the same for the rocks, though."

"I get the feeling that it's a very warm and windless day !"

"overwhelmed !Contrast of color, water and Canyon !"

"I like the water and the terrain structures. Maybe the shoreline could be better, but nevertheless the image is my MO choice :)"

"The green water does it well."

"Awesome river! Really muddy water! The terrain is huge and looks realistic as hell!"

"Amazing use of surface layers. Nice algae effect in the water. The river is just a little too uniform looking, though."

"It was very difficult to decide where this should be voted for, and I decided that most original was the place to put it. Technically, this is a tremendous feet, it looks very real, and the natural, rustic feel to this piece is 100% there for me. What made me vote for it for most original is your point of view. It is such a brilliant POV, one that I have seen riveled by very few images made in terragen. Congrats "

"realistic lighting, excellent texturing, and a realistic point of view, give this image an edge over the rest that almost look real."

* " A very nice and original scene. The only thing is that the front is a bit too "pixy"."

"Simply Outstanding."

"Your current contest, number 55 rocks. It is the best I have seen."

"Well crafted indeed!"

"Looks like a modified Green Canyon Gooseneck DEM. Reality can be approximated by using a realistic DEM. For my feeling, familiar sights try to take an advantage over those contributors to this contest that have not used such popular DEMs. The graphical impression of the image is great. The idea to use a modified DEM of a familiar sight is something special. The MO category seems to be appropriate."

"Definitely the most realistic looking from my point of view."

"Very nice transparency and perfect water color"
