I have 8 Balls

The title has no meaning... But it's somehow connected to the picture...

Ok now show me your actual balls

Awesome

Thats so cool and realistic! You must be really talented, I like the way it looks natural rather than all the balls facing the same way for example and the direction of light is obvious :D

so cool

really good job

I like it

well done, it's a pretty cool picture

Good

This is an excellent image with a great subject and theme. I'm really happy to look at it.
Detailed comments: you have some great details, like randomly rotated balls, textured pool table, and just the right amount of reflectivity on the balls' surfaces. However, the texture of the table is too smoothed. Using multiple textures, one large and one small, to add chaos instead of just randomness. Final comment, the 8-ball image you chose was good, but you made one serious faux-pas: the resolution of the image is too low for your render! I can see the pixels on the front ball's surface. Either use a more detailed 8-ball image, or decrease your final rendered size.
And to pass on some advice I recently received, adding random dirt to the table and random scratches to the balls will add that extra realism. That's a lot of effort, though.
Again, excellent work.
