Avalanche Lake - Final

[Antoine]

I think this is already an exceptional artwork. Perhaps just add some dead trees or automn colored trees here and there but as I said it is already a great photorealistic image.
Where did you get this kind of alpine DEM ?

Here is the final. It turns out that the white reflections in the water were never from the snow. They are reflections of the clouds above the mountains. I tried to find a seed that wouldn't show them, but eventually I got lazy and just went with them. I suppose I could have just disabled the clouds... oh well.

Antoine, I get just about all of my DEM's from http://viewer.nationalmap.gov/viewer/. It has good resolution, and full coverage over the continental U.S. I usually just look on google maps for a interesting location and then download the DEM for that place.

Here it is:

Real nice Darth. I noticed you got your self a pretty good portfolio on deviant too.

That is a very good render, with an enormous sense of depth. Terrific! Hardly discernable from a photo also.

It's an amazing realistic rendering! Thanks also for the DEM info.

This is quite photo-realistic, you have nailed the colours and atmo.
