Nice image. I like the snow-flakes falling all over the scene. Now for suggestions: Uhm... Ah, got one: Maybe the fish could look a bit more wet and fishy. less plastic.

Nice pic! Is this your fantasy challenge entry?

Good pic! I think the igloo should have a little icy sheen to it. I like the concept though. Lin

Colette1: It wasn't intended for the challenge, Iv'e titled it "Hockey Night In Canada".Its sort of a spoof, a lot of people (other than us Canucks) think that this type of scene is the norm here and that we all live in Igloos. Thanks all for the comments and suggestions.

I was just kidding, it would be an awfully cold fantasy...LOL I do like it though.

I like the igloo wireless technology, have got a patent yet. ;)

Now just where are you getting the electricity from? Leave the igloo alone - it looks just fine. I never saw a shiny igloo yet. If this is your first then god help the rest of us. Excellent! The Bryster (Chris)

Change your shadow color from grey to blue. Pick an oranger color for the light and use about half the value for your igloo light. If you apply the football player photo to the diffusion and ambience channels and kick the values way up towards 100 it will make it look like the TV is glowing. If you apply the fish texture to the specularity and kick it up they'll look wet. Great image and setup just a little flat.

Every igloo needs a sony!

Might put some vague shadows under the fish to 'ground' them...bbbrrrrrrrr, the water could be a little darker, (no light under the ice pack) just a thought or two...=)

I would add a very fine bum map to the igloo. Nice image...gotta love the dish.

Shouldn't the dish be pointing at the sky where the satellite would be? =)

Or is it receiving a signal bounced off the ocean floor? :p

Dunno about the elevation of the sattelite dish, since most broadcast sattelites are equatorial (having that geostationary orbit yada yada...) Never been up that far north, so I'm not sure. Yet, it still seems tilted a bit low. But where is the juice coming from? It wouldn't hurt to have a generator and some gas cans sitting around? Or perhaps some kind of power rig built into the snowmobile itself - and thus some wires... I doubt the generator would be kept in the igloo itself - the heat would be nice, but the noise and exaust would still exclude it to the outside. I know - it must be that it's right behind the igloo. ;)
