Any way you could PS the shore line? The edges are so hard, maybe you could soften them up a little somehow Otherwise this image is amazingly beautiful. What programme did you use?

terragen dude, freeware from [link] except mine is registered (i shelled out money ). I wish i had the ps knowhow to take care of problems like the shoreline, it's always a problem for me in renders like this for some reason, i may try and remedy it some day. But thanks for the comment

Yeah, I was playing around in Terragen last night. I love that programme. I should shell out the money too, but I have none. Oh well. Keep up the good work. If you don't mind I may PS this for you and email (?) it to you. I'm not the best PS boy, but I may be able to help. Keep up the amazing work!

Seems a bit too bright in my opinion. But it's very nice.
Is the terrain all Terragen ?

Agreed! I like the sky too, with the strong sun and the flying away sort of clouds. Something in this that i think sticks out a bit is the white part of the mountain on the left, distracted me for a brief while. Though, works after the first reaction of it.

Looking forward to the one you are working on now.

boli [2004-01-19 04:09:20 +0000 UTC]

agreed, the sky, clouds and lighting is very nice! i also like the lighting of the mountain back and to the left.
the lake's shore does have some rather ugly "steps" though. :-/

larsonsier [2004-01-18 04:44:46 +0000 UTC]

I think the land around the water needs more defined. Right where the water gets bright, it looks a little odd. Other than that, it's yet another good peice ^_^

RHeNdRiX [2004-01-18 04:21:27 +0000 UTC]

i agree alyn love that atmo and clouds.. my only concern is the Reflection of Sunlight settings might be a bit high?
my settings are usually down towards 3 or 4.
what Terrain did you use for this piece? looks interesting.
Nice work

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

alyn In reply to RHeNdRiX [2004-01-18 08:31:58 +0000 UTC]

my reflection settings weren't high at all, i think it's just the intensity of the sun which was 200%, then the (either glow or power) was set to 300%. That was before post processing which was used to increase contrast a little.

I've forgotten which DEM i used, it's definately one of ashundars available files that stotty has prepared, i did some touching up of the file in photoshop though with my tablet, customise the terrain a little.

I like the angle and the color. The only thing I don't like is the one mountian looks like it's glowing, off to the left. Besides that, Awsome work liek usual.

mandarin-vanilla [2004-01-18 03:35:14 +0000 UTC]

I love the sky, very warm. The scene looks like it could be somewhere in New Mexico, with the high plateus.

It's a very feel-good image.

Still breathtaking, but watch out about pixels near the water.

Awesome picture. The sky is beautiful and the landscape possesses tons of depth. I especially like the way you've added shores to the lake. It's that sort of attention to detail that makes every composition of yours an outstanding piece of work.

heidorn [2004-01-17 20:48:24 +0000 UTC]

another very nice piece, as usual Although one mountain to the left somehow seems weird. I guess the sunrays make it look a tad too bright against the cloudscape.
