For me, one of the trickiest parts of achieving my desired level of realism in an alpine scene is the dense underbrush visible between tree groves. This image was intended to help practice getting the density I want to see. I still need to find and collate a full set of realistic plant species for the underbrush, but what I have here seems to be a good start. I've also tried experimenting with better variety in the shore vegetation as the dense reed grasses fade into the water. Thanks for taking a look, on to the next scene!
