ok I re-revisited a scene I created last year, changed pov etc hit render and five+ hours later it was a disaster...some extreme displacement artifacts/errors....I re examined the node network and tidied it up, fixing extremes of smallest scales and displacement amplitudes of power fractals etc, and deleted an extraneous compute normal(???) I re-rendered, this time it came out as I was expecting but rendered in under half the time....a few lessons learnt over a year!
here are the results of the last few renders....
no wp btw, just jpegged....

I like the second and fourth ones the most - there's a nice tree on the right in the fourth one, and the mossy ground cover on the second is nice.

I'm sure I remember this. Looks great now!

The first one is my favourite, the scales of the vegetation look best there. If they're trees, that is. It looks like quite a large rock-face to, me. The trees just seem a bit big in the others. Nice! 8)

Great what you can learn in a year, eh, man! :)

I have always wondered how you achieved the stacked look to the landscape...

I remembered being green with envy when you first posted these stratified cliffs. I like the 2nd and 5th best. Nice to see variants of it again.

I hope I realise I don't exist before I apparently die.
