Frozen Dunes

[Henry Blewer]

I played around with the lighting quite a lot here. So much so, I kind of got tired of rendering it over and over.    Opinions and comments are welcome.

I used Walli's plants here. Pines, Old Pines, Dry Brush, Dry Grasses, and Grasses.

Hi njeneb

Terrain, Light and Composition are nice!

But I think the stones are to evenly (all at the same size and overall in foreground).
The one very nice (think it is the) "Old Pines" is an eye catcher and should be more rarely.

I would be tempted to not have those trees up at the top of the terrain; but, rather only up to about 1/3 the way up to the top - and, close the tree spacing for a more dense look.

I was attempting to have the straight pines on the tops and the twisted pines on the valley floor to look like a photo I was using. This one did not work out too well, except to experiment with the sun lighting, contrast, exposure, gamma, atmosphere, and enviro lighting.

At least I learned what not to do.
