Description One with personal meaning it in.

Several weeks in the making. Getting the right terrain and textures was the hardest part, not to mention getting the surf to look "realistic".. Kind of.

This is actually part of a 12000x8000 render which was then downsized and cropped. So it's actually part of a much larger image with a lot more in.

13 hours @ 12000x8000 on a 3GHZ P4 and a couple of hours post processing.

Thanks for viewing!

The time spent on the surf was well worth it, and the water is gorgeous. I'll be studying the water quite a bit. Love the overhang. This reminds me of something I have seen on Renderosity.

That's amazing! At first I thought that this was a photo which you'd only changed the colours of, so yeah it's very realistic, and yet surreal. I adore this! I want to go there

how did you do the overhang... you must have rendered it the other way up and then stuck it on right?

Wow, I thought this was actually a photograph at first.. I'm not very well versed with renders and such.. I actually checked it out after seeing a thumbnail to see if you posted where you took the picture because I figured it was one of the wonders of the world or something... --;;

John, you've never failed to impress me. You're still working with Terragen and thats amazing. One with personal meaning, means it will be excellent and it is. The rocks are really unusually sculpted and surreal as they covern (is that the right word?) over the beach like a warning sign. The surf and water is also very surreal and dark, which flows with the mood of the rocks. Excellent lighting as well m8. Overall you get an A+ for everything cuz I just shit my pants.
