Looks like the next stills topic will be "Spectacular Landscapes", 
according to the welcome.msg file on the IRTC ftp site.

Start pov'ing everyone!

I am wondering why it takes so long to see the change on the main home
page where most people browse to check.

  Usualy people go to the main site for viewing, etc.

This will be a good topic. I have not entered the IRTC before, but I have
already started an entry for this round.

I hope Mick Hazelgrove gets in on this.

I still haven't made my mind about liking it or not... I'm waiting for 
the full description of the theme on the official IRTC site to decide 
that. :-)

Anyway, you have a point there, Bryce users will be right at home.

     IRTC: "Any stunning view of natural origin."

     Damn! I started my project the day after reading your post.

     Now it doesn't fit with the description.

Define "natural origin"? - or rather, "what the hell is an unnatural origin?"

      Yes, I know, but the way they've presented the description, it reads to me
that they want a scene that's *known*, i.e., "The Grand Canyon, the Himalayas, the
Alps", etc...

    I've started a SF scene that hopefully has a "Spectacular Landscape",  but how
do I know if it's 'natural' or not?

Exactly.
When only the title was available, I thought of a remote planet with a 
big errupting volcanoe... It has to be on a remote planet, because of 
the special lightning/feeling/... Probably not an original idea!

The way the text explains the title, I believe the landscape must be 
somewhere on Earth! Moreover, it must be a real aerial landscape (hint: 
what about Hawai islands, seen from the bottom of the sea, WiTHOUT any 
water,
just keeping the traces of where the sea would be ? That would be 
spectacular, that might be a landscape, but it does not seem to match 
the text).

Also, did anybody think about 'paper -landscape' ? It would have been an 
easy pun/word-play with the title, but it is obviously off-topic 
according to the text (unless, it's a landscape photo of a spectacular
landscape... or any thing more recursive...)... advertisement in 
landscape (instead of portrait) for a spectacle ?

Too late. Already read it and to be honest I didn't like it.

I was thinking about a view of the "eggs" in the Matrix, with thousands 
and thousands of red bulbs, each with a person inside, and Neo looking 
at all that (like in the movie). But that is not of natural origin, so 
I'm stuck with nothing.

Maybe in November... :-)

My advice is DO IT.

That would be a spectacular landscape.

I do agree with you. Each one of us decide if something is off-topic or not.

If the topic is as close as the others say, then why using pov?
Use Vue d'Esprit, Terragen, World Machine, Leveller, Vista Pro or Bryce (to
say some).
A lot of entrants will do so.

If I finally decide to enter, I won't make do the typical "Spectacular
Landscape"

Just my opinion.

Not even sure what Bryce does, I only have PoV. The topic will have a bunch
of mountain and seaside entries, but to me it beats the Hell out of another
"perfume" topic.
Winter, Loneliness, Dreaming.

I would prefer that the topics were much more specific and therefore (to me)
more interesting, but the other voters obviously disagree strongly.

     Ok, that's fine. That's what I wanted to know. I'll keep my image and submit
it. ;)

too...)

When I first found out the ftp topic, I also started on mine,
unfortunately my project has been halted as when the irtc.org site had
finaly been updated days later, I found out the description does not allow
the theme I had intended.  So back to the drawing board for me.
 I may just stick with my original idea however.  The IRTC is not all about
trying to get high votes.  Well, ok that is not exactly true.. lol.
  However, I may stick with my On topic and Off description project and just
try to make the best image I can, and despite I'll get burned by people who
dont think it applies, I will have a well made project nevertheless.
  I am still trying to figure out how a topic that tends to cause most
runners I know so much grief, got voted #1.  Perhaps this is an indication
that more people need to vote to get a true average, unless a flaw happened
during someones submission and a number of extra votes got slaped in.

The description is not the topic.  The description is just a suggested
interpretation of the topic.  If your scene fits the topic, but not the
description, submit it anyway.

Yes, that is unfortunate. It may be true that the topic is not dependent on
the description, but I'm sure some voters won't feel that way.

I think that the similarity of so many topics is another indication that
only a very small group of  people are voting.

I do vote on the topic list. and I usually gives a 'poor' level to topic 
which are far too closed. And it get a better level if I can think of
more than one 'typical' (openess to borderline interpretation is good too).
  Perhaps I'm alone doing such, everybody else voting for its own entry ?

I like to use raytracing to create 'impossible' scenes and make them look as
if they were real. Ok, we can experiment a lot with perspective, texturing,
lightning and atmospheric effects. But why raytracing landscapes which are
already real (and even looking more natural on photos?). I'm missing some
fun in interpreting the theme and compositing a nice scenery this time.

As I read here, there are very good ideas in interpreting the theme and I'm
very sad I will never see those pictures. So have some courage and render
your ideas, that's what raytracing is for (and not winning any
competition)! And if you don't want to submit, post your images in the
newsgroup so everybody can see what really "spectacular landscapes" are
looking like!

I think the topic would be ok., but the description is "off-topic" to
raytracing!!!

      That's a shame. Judging from ftp://www.irtc.org  there won't be many
entries. There's 33 at present. I hope there's a good surge tonight and tomorrow.

       Mine isn't going to be finished because I know I can't do what I want to do
in time, but it looks ok(ish) so I'm sending it tonight.

I thought about the same but there are often quite a lot of submissions in
the last days, the lowest number of sumbissions in the last two years was
in the 'spirit of asia' round (64) and i think this round is likely to get
more.  I submitted mine yesterday and am looking foreward to seeing the
other entries...

       Yes, I used my original idea. I started the image on the 2nd September and
the HF in the image was produced on the 3rd September. So to recap, it's a
'Spectacular Landscape' space scene. Oh well, I tried...

     Just to add here: I've just sent it in and now I'm freaking out that I've
sent the wrong image!! I keep checking my 'Sent Folder' and it say's it's the
right image - phew, I think! ;)  Does anyone else get this? <sweatin'loads>

     Yes, even though I didn't enter that one, I enjoyed it immensely - some great
art. I'm looking forward to this one too, so good luck Chris.

Hm, if you're thinking about that iced land image
from the last round (the one with the igloo), that's
not from Christoph...
And to answer any questions that may arise: No,
I didn't enter. I haven't got the time to start something
new at the moment, but want to finish old projects...

Regards,
Tim

it in a few days...

Always. I FTP mine up and I always triple check the pic, the text file and
the
zip to make sure they're OK before sending

  Yes, I did all that too, but still HAD to check it out to make sure. Finally, my
heart and head says it's ok.

   Sweat over.  Phew!  ;o)
