Crack Willow Forest

[RArcher]

Another new one - going for a very mystical storybook sort of feeling.

3 populations of Crack Willow
3 populations of Austrian Pine
2 populations of Walli's dry grass
1 population Walli's Crocus
1 population of Walli's Dandelion

Looks great. It seems over saturated to me, but I like darker images. There is also some noise in the sunbeams, but don't change that. It helps with the ethereal quality of the image.

Very nice, Ryan.

I'm sure this took some render time. The lighting is very interesting and I'm sure you were spending a lot of tweaking time.

Keep 'em coming.

Looks sweet
Its gona be a HOT day
Is there an ever-so-slight lens distortion giving just a bit of cromatic abboration at the edges
Or am I just imagining it, lol

Thanks guys,

Njeneb:  Definitely oversaturated!  But in this case by design.

Marc: Rendering time was actually pretty good at just under 6 hours.  Helps tremendously that with no ground to speak of I simply set it to Ray Trace everything.

Richard:  Good eye, I did add a little bit of chroma in post

A bit surreal, but I like it, since it really breathes your style
