Life after global warming ?
another planet ?
you decide.
Hmmm... wonder what this button does....

Love it. I don't know how much more cowbell you can put into TG's atmosphere to deal with the noise, which is a limit of this app as far as I've seen so far. But the shape you've built the composition around is strong, and convincing.

It may be too hazy. It's cool though. Nice work.

I think I maxed out most setings I could
(I only have the new free version)
and I believe it took 2 days on my old PC.

I could mabie increase atmosphere samples some more,
but them it would proabaly take 4 days to render...  ???

Cranking up all the settings is always a bad idea. An image like this should not need to take 2 days. I would leave all settings at default except for atmosphere samples. A few cropped renders would allow you to find out how how many atmosphere samples are needed to eliminate the noise.

Just because milk is white doesn't mean that clouds are made of milk.

Thanks Matt,
I'll give it a try.  ;D

Composition wise I would tilt the camera up a little so I could see more sky and less of the mist obscured (Samey), ground but that's just me being picky.  It's a nice moody image and given Matt's advice could render a lot quicker. 

I do like it tough.  ;D
Smoke me a kipper I'll be back for breakfast.
