I kinda like it. the moon is postwork, but I used a planet to illuminate the scene. I think the light source needs to be stronger do bring out more details, and I don't really like the clouds (why aren't they in front of the moon when I rendered it?) comments/critiques appreciated!
The image looks like it has the potential to be amazing...but it is far too dark. Use an external program to brighten it up.
I agree with Dark fire, a little too dark but has great potential. Nice moon BTW.

thanks, I liked the idea I had. I did use Photoshop to brighten it, but I wanted it to look like night (as opposed to almost morning, or evening) so I didn't do too much to it. I'm working on lighting it better now
I like it dark, it's night. :)
I have not tried it in TG2 but in version 0.9 I found that adjusting the exposure in the camera often gave more realistic results than post processing.
What did you do to get a extra light source? I get the "Red Scene" every time I try.
funny u should mention that, it was working fine but now i get the red screen thing, not sure what the issue is exactly... I'm using another light source (not sunlight, the other one) to light the scene
ok, finally an update to this (been working on other stuff). It's been giving me a lot of issues, mostly the dreaded red screen. It turns out that at it's current settings, it goes red if the detail is b/w .5 and .7. It can't be an issues with the RAM, b/c I've done more complex scenes with no problems. Anyways, here's a render at .36 detail. This time, I had the candle light as a visible object, and the tree looks different (leaves) even though I didn't really change anything else.
That's much better - I can see the tree quite well now...
much better! great job! :)

thanks. Why aren't there clouds in front of the moon? Is it just because ther really aren't any there, or is that an issue with planets?
MrWho, I can't see the clouds in your image at all (it's pretty dark, though it looks nice), but planets should render properly behind clouds. If you've made the planet luminous that may be involved in the problem.

when you can't see stars, that's where teh clouds are (or tree) The moon is luminous, so I guess that's why
