apparently, the storm hasn't reached the poor cherry tree yet.  ;)
But in the distance, the tornado is playing its symphony of destruction.

Technically, this image took under 2 hours to render at 2K resolution, which is quite good considering the high quality settings used.
The Tornado is an early version of an upcoming NWDA product, and makes use of a few new features currently in beta. Well, to be precise, let's say there will be a corresponding NWDA product once the new features make it into a public release.

Here we go, hope you like it (reduced size to 1680 wide).

Regards,
Frank

that's a pretty sick looking tornado man! :o
Maybe increase the density of it at the bottom though

This is very highly realistic. And that is one cool tornado.
Heard of computer graphics? CG? Terragen 2, the landscape generating program, also known as TG, a whole cool way to create realistic CG - with TG.

Very nice Frank, Very nice. Makes me curious how you concocted this... have to dive into the cloud settings again.

Wow, awesome work. Just 2 ideas I have in mind: I think the clouds should be darker and there should be dust within the tornado.
Mouthwash? We don't need no stinking mouthwash!! [MI2]

thank you everyone, I am glad you like it.

Actually this scene is my contribution to a project I'm doing with a photographer, who is going to embed photographic elements into this, with the goal of making the entire scene look perfectly integrated and photo real. It's been a fun project so far, I can tell you.

Cheers,
Frank
