Forest

A lovely, lovely image. The foliage is very complex, yet harmonious, and works so well with the mist-subdued palette. Beautiful!

It just gettin' and gettin' better!

Both, the second and the third are very good. the lighting on both are beautifully enhancing.

Yeah, indexed, I just thought to try a png this time. No other reason. But it is an idea to do if you don't want theft, have to  keep that in mind. You don't really see it, do you?

PNG is theft resistant? In what way?

I thought about that more Ulco.
The problem is probably if there isn't any difference it won't be much a help too .
You use Lightwave too.I read that years ago 256 color images were used in production too.
Especially memory wise.
From a distance and depending on the image it is hard to see.
I only saw it when i wanted to try some editing for fun on it

@N-drju : It was about that his image is an indexed one.It does have only 256 colors.
                Not a PNG specific thing only.

You're both right, it isn't theft proof of course, (it won't dissolve after a few days, though that would be fun) but maybe a little less interesting to print and sell maybe. I don't care really, my large files won't end up on the web anyway.

Fantastic forest! Love the lighting and detail work you did.

Nice image, Ulco.  At least now I know I'm not the only one who's paranoid.

A few updated images. The wood needed some fall colors.

I like the test 2. Reminds me of the early days as a young kid hiking in our forest preserves outside of Chicago. Nice vegetative variation and fog.

I like the second one more too.
On one of my monitors it is a little darker (looks better there to me).
Maybe it's me but i think with a little more contrast and-or different gamma it might look better.

[archonforest]

I go with the 1st one. Like that sunshine around

Lovely atmosphere in both of those Ulco.
