Did a render using Marc's Rhino object. Also used Walli's grasses and the Umbrella Acacia.

very nice scene, it's a shame the acacias don't have more variation, the rest is spot on!

Those trees look ... a little stretched out. Still the picture is very very good!

Not Njeneb's fault in the slightest, jbest. ;)

The grasses and ground cover look hyper-nice in this scene, Henry! I like it lots. Good one! :)

Ah, I guess the trees came sort of stretched out like that ...

The acacia tree in this image grow on the savannas in Africa. The tops of the trees are regularly  pruned by giraffes.

Great looking ground cover!  I really like the distribution etc.  One thing that I don't like is how dark it is!!  Use the exposure controls and hit the button 5-6 times (at least).  I guarantee that you will be happy with the results if you re-render.  Here is a quick photochop example of what I think it should be like, hope you don't mind!

Thanks Ryan. I always forget to adjust the exposure.

I made a color, brightness and contrast adjustment using the smart photo fix in Corel Paint.

I've given up reminding you of exposures, Henry :D

The image is very well done, congratulations!

Well, at least I have found a way to make the exposure changes in Corel Paint.

The groundcover is really great, it comes out even better with the adjusted lighting.
The Rhinos though have a brown to urange color that I associate more with sumatra than african rhinos.
I could be totally wrong there, it´s just an association.
Great image anyway!
