Hi! Nice idea. Some tips: Change the size of your "shadow map" for the final render. Make it 1024X1024 if you can. (There is a dial for this.) The shadows will be a lot less smudgy. Poses. The linked hands need work on the fingers. The man's feet need to be reset so he doesn't fall over (I'd move his right leg back). Textures. The man's uniform needs a texture map to equal the detail in the lady's dress (which is lovely). You can find textures for fabric at various free sites, and scale them down. Alternatively, just adding a bit of "noise" in PhotoShop (or its equivalent) will help. Also, the doors in the building have too intense a blue. If you have Bryce or Terragen, you can render a gorgeous sky in minutes. If you don't, PhotoShop has a sky filter which does a fine job of faking glass in a pinch. If you don't have that, either, tone down the blue so it won't fight with your wallpaper. Composition. Is quite nice. The tables are a bit bare, but potted plants or partygoods might be a distraction. I would suggest trimming the right edge so that the wall there isn't a distraction either. Anyway, you have a great start! Keep at this and you'll have a lovely and romantic picture. Carolly
