A "Golden Moment" for sure. Nice use of PBR objects here, well integrated!
something borrowed,
something Blue.

Wonderfully natural forest floor and great lighting! Though I suspect it might be just a bit unnaturally bright? But the aesthetic is beautiful.

Also, it's hard to say for sure, but there seem to be some unnaturally straight lines (angles) in some of the ferns in the lower-right. Maybe need a higher poly model?

Thanks guys 😊

Yes, I need a higher poly model of some ferns for sure  ;D
Many of the models are way to low poly and not very good for this close up, but it would not be fun to work with this scene if I replaced all with high poly models. This scene is already a very slow to work with  :'(

It is probably a little bright also.

I'm not sure if I'll continue on this scene or start a new one. I've learned a lot from this and wanna start from scratch.

Lovely! My only suggestions/concerns is the scanned rock and stump look to bright in shadows. Perhaps their diffuse could be lowered some.

This is very dreamy, the lighting and haze. Could see a huge stag out there in the open.

I'll lower the diffuse on those models ;)

What aspects are slow? Are you working in RTP or the old preview? Or do you mean just for rendering, or some other aspect? Of course we all reach the limits of our hardware eventually, I'm just curious if things could be improved now without changing hardware. :D

Both preview windows are slow with this scene. RTP and the old one. There are lots of populations and I hide the ones I'm done with or the ones I don't need. But moving the camera around is still getting a little slow, not to the point it's not usable, but still slow and trying to use the paint shader is not very fun. I actually try to avoid it if possible.

Interesting. I find RTP to remain reasonably responsive even with very large populations. Remind me your hardware? I can't remember if you got something new recently or not.  :D

I know the GPU isn't the best, but it should do just fine for this I believe, or?

Yeah, I thought maybe you had upgraded recently. That hardware really should do fine, and the GPU shouldn't matter at all in RTP, only in regular 3D Preview. So I guess it's just a really heavy scene. :D Part of me still wants to look at it and see if there is room for optimization, but only if you want me to. ;)

I'll send the file when I'm at my computer.

Beautiful! Yes, the lighting is great, but maybe a little flat. Did you use the legacy renderer? If so, I'd love to see this rendered with the path tracer.
