my entry

Hello everybody

I am taking part in the CGTalk challenge as well, anyway this is what I am doing

it's nearing the end of the century and Earth has become to small, for the latter half of the century various governments have started creating large machines that convert uninhabitable planets to something a little bit more habitable, before sending out this new technology, the governments of Earth sets up a Council that will deal with issues this new venture shall bring, the Council creates a small but sizeable force that will land scout the targeted planet for any signs of life. This force made up of volunteers from every army around the glode, all ready to embark on this great event that will change mankind forever.

some of the rocks seem to be floating to me. Might just be me though. Could check the shadows maybe. Seem like they should have long thin shaddows coming towards the camera if the light if straight ahead right?
