Would have been nice to have a few dew drops on the web to catch the light :)
Really nice spider model.

Even though there aren't many objects in this scene, it is quite impressive (to
me). I actually like spiders, but the web still caught the loneliness.

From darwallace@earthlink.net:
Check p.advanced-users for a new spiderweb idea (low-accracy crackle loses the
center and looks like a web).  Needs an environment setting (abandoned barn
with moon outside window)>

Unlike most people, I tend to like spiders.  Hence I like this image as well. 
Though the web still does look too artificial.  I believe natural webs are
still more random than that.  But that may be a difference of opinion.
 P.S. the spider legs themselves could use smoother modeling.  Also you may want
to add hairs for extra realism.

would have been nice to have a couple leaves and branches to frame it to give it
more depth.

From awilcox@dreampeach.com:
Well done.

From whitey@telefragged.com:
i like it, but the lighting could have been done a little better.  it's night
time, and the spider is entirely too bright.  it would have been better if you
had removed the main light and turn the brightness up on the moon light.

From beighton155@yahoo.com:
A nice idea on the theme and a very nice picture. Maybe a little more action
would be nice, something in the sky maybe?

=====
From novotek@web.de:
great job, kerry ! nice modelling - but unfortunately a little bit
"flat-rendered" (spider's too soft - some kind of bump-mapping with fine noise
would help if you don't want to add hair). 
hooray to the web - i know, that's only "some lines" - but most of it the effect
you want to have with this is tricky (some dewdrop ?).

hope your engine doesn't be "webbed" in the render-process of 20 hours... :)

Great concept! Spiders are a solid personification of the concept of loneliness,
I believe. I like the moon as well, but it seems that your spider is being lit
from the front, rather than from it.

=====
From jpgargoyle@sapo.pt:
It isn't lonely. It is doing what a spider does: hunting.
And if it is lonely it's by it's own choice. Female Spiders mate and eat the
male
(if they can catch him ;D)
Best regards.

Pros: Model of the spider, the night sky, the moon, the spider web

cons: The clouds are 2D... they look 2D, it was a dead giveaway.

Interesting point of view.

From jrcsurvey@aol.com:
Beautiful job on the spider web.  Insects are certainly inscrutible.

From glenn@mccarters.net:
Good web -- an actual spiral, and not quite symmetrical.  The =
perspective seems off: since we see nothing but the sky, the camera must =
be pointing nearly straight up.  But that would mean that the web is =
horizontal.  I thought most webs were more-or-less vertical.

From jinx@spodbox.fsnet.co.uk:
I can't exactly explain WHY, but the clouds just don't look RIGHT.
=====
From p_chan@shaw.ca:
I like the composition of this image.  I feel that the 
"uncluttered simpleness," as you put it, of this image 
adds to the feeling of loneliness which it conveys.  The 
web is done well, successfully creating a natural looks, 
but I do find the beginning of the outward spiral 
somewhat abrupt and awkward.

=====
From harlidobib@redshift.com:
I love your concept, as well as its execution.

=====
From StephenF@whoever.com:
This is nice... the spider and web both look good, 
although the spider might benefit from a different 
texture.  Moon and clouds look good too.

From jl@artcom-gmbh.de:
Nice idea and result, very moody. One of my favourites in this competition.

=====
From clem@dhol.org:
Good idea.  I like the understated web.  The view showing 
the spider alone against the sky with no surrounding 
scenery visible helps the interpretation.
