Same iteration, just bigger and higher quality.

This contest has made me realize how badly I need a new computer.

This reminds me that next time we should try and get Intel on board as a sponsor ;-)

Is this one any better ?

Anybody..........................................

I like it. The larger size allows the detail you have to be seen much better. The shadows are kinda lacking in detail; I'm having the same problem with my contest renders at the moment.

It is, I like the last one much better that the ones before that. The reduced mist helps. Maybe some more grasses and shrub (species) in the closer area, not making it denser, but more varied. That's all I can think of at the moment.

Render time 25 hours and change.

Quality:.7
AA:6
GI:3,3,8

If I start on the final now, it might be finished by the deadline.

25 hours! That's along time. Ancient machine? For a small size like this, maybe detail 0.6 or 0.65 may do, as well as less GI (deafult). Try some crops with different settings before you start your final render. Would be too bad if the last bucket finishes an hour after deadline.

Some nice things going on in the image. Seems a combination of denser haze and shadows poses some challenges for TG, I also am having some issues with that. But I like the overall mood and composition and you're MUCH further along then I am!

Yes it is better. I like vegetation in water and the mountain in the bacground but I prefer the version of "contest 21crop".

This is the final, just smaller. No post, just converted to .jpg.

I have to do a small amount of post on the .exr and will send it to NWDA.

Great, now cross your fingers and wait for the outcome.....

FrankB · March 25, 2013, 05:18:38 AM

Good job, Yossam! We hope you enjoyed the journey

I live just a little less than 3 miles from the original Intel plant on Chandler Boulevard and Rural road.
