I have this one on my main screen right now (it changes every 30 minutes, though), and I remember using it when it was in the free gallery... the reflections on the water are simply amazing! So is the overall light and mood this picture creates, even though it makes me some kind of depressed... looks like a chilly afternoon after a sunny day, and with the thin layer of clouds you can almost feel the breeze... and weather like that always makes me melancholic, because it feels as if time is slipping away too fast. Well, as for the 9 out of 10: almost everything is perfect, but I'd love to see an abandoned bathing jetty to make it even more sad... ;) Thank you once more, Ryan, for these great images! |

I can only relate it in relation to the other things I see on the site. I also stated that I would love to see it re-rendered. Now to add to that, heck could I do any of this? heck no. So it is certainly not his talent that I have any critique at all for. |

In my opinion, it still compares quite well with the newer material, even with its age. Honestly, like a great painting, it doesn't need to be compared, just admired for its beauty. |

It has been my understanding, as long as I have had my ratings system in place, that images are rated in relation to each other. Someone seeing this piece back when it was made may have given it a high rating because it compared favorably with the rest of my collection. As my techniques have improved the older images can appear crude by comparison. |

Why would you rate a image from 11yrs ago badly because it doesn't look the same as images now... |

This one could use a redo in your current rendering methods. Has a lot of potential... |

Take the 1920x1200 version and crop it to your preferences. |

I would really love to have the 1920x1080 version of this one! |

Every time I've shown this one to friends there's always someone saying "It looks a bit artificial".
Even though it may not be the most realistic scene ever, it is still breathtakingly-beautiful.
It's like a rare romantic painting; it doesn't need to be realistic. |

This one still takes my breath away. I think it's as good as your current works, and I normally prefer your current works over your older ones, but this one is an exception. |

One of my favorite things about your art, especially this one, is that I feel like I've been here before. I like to think that somewhere in the world there is a place like this. |

Ryan, I've enjoyed your work for years and have come to appreciate your Fall scenes the most. "Last Gold" is my favorite. Is there any chance you could re-do "Last Gold" this fall as you have done with some of your other images? I know it would be awesome! Thanks |

This is one of my favorites. It reminds me of one of those cold days of mid-November, with the hazy sun and the dark reddish-brown leaves. This is my desktop image for most of the fall. Great work! |

Beautiful picture. The realism is amazing and the colours are awesome.
This would look great as a full-blown wall picture. |
