C&C please................

A good start, but there are a couple of suggestions if you don't mind.

I would add more grasses and ground cover, and make the clumps smaller, so you have completely covered areas and other areas that are more sparsely covered. This close to the ground you will see a lot of detail, so add it in, dry leaves, sticks from the trees etc. I would also do the same for the flowers clump them together so they are not so evenly spread out.

Drop the camera just a little so the branch is not so cutting the image in half.

Move the sun so it's slightly more to the right of the camera, less behind the camera, this will create a more dramatic feel, you can add in more ambient light or increase the exposure if the image becomes to dark in the shadows.

I would also consider adding in a rock or pool at the centre of the clearing (but to one side of the image) to add a point of visual focus.

I'm sure others will have other suggestions quite possibly in entirely different directions.

Hope this helps

Your alpha is bust on the the right hand tree leaves. ;D
Otherwise it's coming along nicely. How about adding some relief to the boulder.

I didn't notice the alpha.............test renders were fine. I had to reload the population to get it right. Weird..............

Hi Yossam,

The second image looks a lot better. But, just a suggestion, break up the surface colour a bit. Right now it looks a bit too even (light brown).

One more thing and that's the image used for the bark on the tree to the left. You can see that the image is repeated. The bark on the branches looks good.

Cheers

Re: the alpha, I think it's the brown leaves, but wasn't like that in the first image. The over all layout is good - a peacefull and relaxing place.

I echo all - looking really good so far!

One more time, changed a bunch of things...............

I can see that Yossam,

A lot more grass and the clouds, imo, looks better in this image.

Cheers

It's coming along nicely. I think it would benefit from having the same horizontal field of view, but add more vertical aspect. Bring the top of the left side tree into the image.
