The textures are really nice, and the atmosphere is one of the best I have seen
period.  The light ray work is excellent!  I see no problems with this image at
all.  Great work!

Very effective frost. I really like this image :)

BTW, according to the FAQ you are allowed to resize your image in a paint
program.

        Wow, what a huge source-file!  The image is pleasing to view, though
lacks contrast.  The use of halos is a nice touch, though the sun needs some
improvement.  The branches on some of the trees as well could do with a more
natural form of branching.  Perhaps a more blueish sky would help?  I believe
you maybe wanted the majority of this image to be red but it is hard to bring
out contrast, for example what color is the water?

From rjhansen@myrealbox.com:
I really like the atmosphere and lighting. It turned out really well. The frost
is a neat effect, but doesn't quite work...it appears a little too thick and
clumpy. I'm impressed with how you achieved it though. All in all, a very nice
image.

My pick as the best image in this round. Truly beautiful and the post
processing with POV itself very clever.

From tom@tomandlu.co.uk:
Very nice - a definite favourite. Some of your techniques seem like
overkill, but if you got the ram...

This is one of the nicest images I've ever seen, in any medium.  What a superb
use of a fast computer.

Especially like the sun glare

From lrwii@joplin.com:
Like the sky and your frost. In your stated goal ' cold 
and lonely winter mood'  wasn't obtained with the bright 
sun and red sky.
