Lovely.  As others have commented, the table tops are pretty nifty.

You might want to play around with the location of the chairs a bit. 
Something just seems a bit too "perfect" in that regard.

It looks like you're using _some_ radiosity, but not nearly enough.  Perhaps 
you're going to crank the settings up later.  If so, be prepared for some 
slow rendering, as much of the scene is in shadows, but it should really 
come to life with some higher settings.   If the deep shadows aren't coming 
out, then you could try allowing more sunlight through the trees, but of 
course that depends on what you're trying to achieve.  Also, is your sun 
bright enough?

As a side note, it's nice to see such a nice use of some of these wonderful 
tools we have available.
