Hmm, flickr's large and medium sizes have very bad artifacts (edit: gone now). That's a great trail

Yeah, digital burp there...
pix: what's wrong with the rendu?
=)

oh, I don´t know in french but in spanish we sometimes say terrible like "terrific" or "tremendous"... Actually I got once a reply from you asking me this same because I had said terrible for terrific... -years ago-
As when we say "badly".... we mean "superlatively" (eg: we had fun, baaaaadly"...)
Anyway, I don´know exactly what pixeliz meant, do tell!... as for me the pic is stunning!

Rendu means the rendered result (short for le résultat rendu but correctly said as rendu). Terrible here is just as some people in English, in the young culture, say bad meaning good. It is mainly a young generation way of talking and mostly European. Since it is not part of my culture or generation, if I were to say this, it would be sarcastic whereas, here, it is meant to be a compliment.
I always love such images!!! Most beautiful!

Let me see if I can fake it: "man, this shot is a disaster!"

we can say in french :" c'est monstrueux" (freakness?) for "woaaaaw......coooool..!!.)..
i know it's a litlle bit strange "superlatif"(i don't know in english..)
thanks for explain that gisela &mimosa .... ;)

You are all so funny! Each generation and country has its own terminology. As you know, if you go back several decades, you will find very different expressions used by the young generation of the time and which are no longer in usage today. Pixeliz who is from France and is probably of a younger generation (let's say, less than 30) has given us interesting insight on how young people in France sometimes communicate.
I must specify that rendu here has a very specific meaning quite different to the usual meaning of arrived. It is in the sense of an artist's or graphic artist's or architect's rendering.
edit: phat?

This is so beautiful and surreal. It's almost as if it's taking place in some sort of fantasy land.
