Nice work on the palace.  The reflection in the water is great.  Just as much
attention should be given to the rocky/sandy landscape, however.  Its hard to
discern if rocky mountains or dunes were intended.  More detail in the
landscape would have helped here.  Nice image though and good concept.

From tek@evilsuperbrain.com:
Good concept and very nice details in the reflected palace. Unfortunately the
majority of the image is taken up by not very detailed sand dunes and an
equally uninteresting sky. I'd suggest more texture and modelling variations on
the dunes beyond the pool. The ripples you've used in the foreground are good,
why aren't they on all the dunes?

From rgow@lanset.com:
Great concept. City reflection is well done. Sand texture is too smooth.

From i-mcnamara@cornellcollege.edu:
Well, I'll start with the sand and mountains... they could use a bit of work,
maybe a grainier texture, and a more wave based flowing shape for the sand. 
Now, while those aspects are a bit lacking, the temple is amazing.  All those
hours that you two put into creating it really did pay off.  I love your
attention to detail; I'm just as obsessive when it comes to architectural
modeling, not that I_m all that good at it.  Keep up the rendering!

very good idea

From ericf@foothill.net:
The mirage image I like a lot, a bit wavy from the water, and your work on the
textures obviously paid off.  It was the other textures I wasn't too crazy
about.  The dunes have a good shape, but I would like to see a grainier texture
to them.  And the mountains look a wee bit too soft, not sure what you might
have done differently there.  I like the tree, but maybe a couple more would
have been good, for balance.

The sand texture lacks depth.

Notable for modelling

I like it. A little more time ant texture work on your environment would nto go
unnoticed, but the reflection itself is great.
