Great dino!  You are right about the focal blur, and I like the sand too

From gregj56590@aol.com:
Nice, consistent feeling. Good detail. A scene every elementary school kid would
love to see!

=====
From d97ta@efd.lth.se:
magnificent texturing...
on the whole, however, the head seems a bit out of proportion.
and where's the messy sticky stuff inside the egg?
it looks too dry.

From ewgr@abaddon.globalnet.co.uk:
You have every right to be proud of this, I can only find one fault... dare I
mention it? There wouldn't be a yolk if the egg was hatching. ;-)

Excellent modelling.  The dinosaur looks great, and great textures,
too.  Focal-blur adds a great deal of depth to the image.

From jaime@ctav.es:
Nice concept. COmposition is also very good, and focal blur is perfectly used.
Perhaps the dino head is a bit big for that egg...

Incredible!!!

This is probably the 5th time I've taken a good look at this one and
I am still impressed.

If this one wins, it will be no surprise to me.  The scene is alive --
the eyes and mouth are brilliantly done -- the thing looks ready
for action! The texturing is skillfully done, the modeling
excellent, the lighting just right.  I am impressed.

You should be proud.  Very nice.

From gmccarter@hotmail.com:
Wow.  So nice.  This is a great image.  Very subtle colors and textures.  I wish
a claw was visible, and some cracks in the shell, but these are not essential
to the dramatic impact of the scene.  Particularly good use of focal blur: near
and far objects are just slightly out of focus, convincing the viewer that this
is a closeup of a small scene.  Captures "Nature" perfectly.
