Valley

Started as an erosion test but took on a life of it's own!

That's how it often goes, doesn't it? Pretty cool, I especially like the waterfall of course. I would reduce the haze though and add some more colors to the rock. Clouds are terrific too.

[mhaze]

That's the problem - haze is set to zero. I really can't think of how to reduce it anymore! It's a problem I come up against many times.

[mhaze]

Ah! GI seems to be the culprit.

Love it!

Very nice! I haven't been able to experiment with erosion because there isn't an osx version(yet?) , but what I have seen so far it may well be the solution to create square noise. There is already something similar in your image. Well done!

[fleetwood]

Cool one.

The rocks look pretty karsty the way they are now, like some places in eastern europe.
Like the clouds, too.

Thanks all.

Very nice, right up to your usual quality. It has a peaceful yet kinda alien feel to it...big LIKE

Snazzy..I like that it has a waterfall. I've never had the stones to attempt that.

[D.A. Bentley (SuddenPlanet)]

Amazing work!  I don't know how to describe it, but it almost feels like a painting.  I would live there.

2nd look revealed that cool waterfall...so you used rivers as well but to much better effect than I got..well done.
How, if I may be so bold to ask, did you do the falling water?..it rocks.

Hi Bobby,

It's a PF, vertically stretched and masked by a simple shape shader with displacement from the PF.  I added a default shader to give translucency and extra specular reflections.

Well done man...noted for future reference.
