Nice background vegetation, very atmospheric. Though the green fog is too
obvious.

From rgow@lanset.com:
Good concept & I like the colors.  The jungle could probably use more ground
plants, and it looks like it stops at the 3rd tree.

From jguthkelch@netscape.net:
Nice atmosphere. Hot and steamy. I feel the sweat breaking out already.
I'm a little unsure about the ivy on the tree trunk, not as good as the rest of
the image. However, that said, an excellent picture.

From ggargett@attbi.com:
I like it.  Original concept.  Tree texture is a little dark.

This is great work!  One of the best entries yet I've seen this round.

My wife suggested something darn similar to this, so needless to say, we
approve.  Do you know her?

From bsieker@techfak.uni-bielefeld.de:

Very nice.

However, the amber drop seems to be too bright, it seems to be illuminated by a
light source near the camera, that has no effect on the rest of the scene.

Not bad, not a used up theme or low-grade quality concept. Good.

From david.madore@ens.fr:
Amusing clin d'oeil to "Jurassic Park" (and the forest looks very much jurassic
indeed).  I like that image.

=====
From clem@dhol.org:
Beautiful.  Very original and appropriate use of the theme.  
The amber looks very good.  Amazing for a last minute 
project.  A testament to both your software and your skills.  
The limited color palette adds drama.  The impression of 
overlapping circles produced by the foliage lends a 
timeless abstract feel.

From MarkNitschke@gmx.de:
Very good image. I like the idea.
=====
From p_chan@shaw.ca:
Excellent work create the jungle environment.  I feel 
that the image does not focus enough on the amber and 
the insect, but I'm not sure how such a focus could be 
achieved.

From batronyx@alliancecable.net:
Not bad for a rush piece.

From slone@hiwaay.net:
Great work, and amazing you did it so quickly, though you had the trees 
ready to go.

Notable for originality, lighting


=====
From r@jerkweed.kiva.net:
Great idea and nice scene.  I'm not sure whether you are breaking the rules by
starting an image before knowing what the topic was though.  I guess when you
started is a bigger issue.
