Fake rocks abound, but was unable to locate that fabled fake lizard node so please imagine the Chuckwalla behind the boulder on the right.

Very good texturing on the rocks. The watering can is a nice touch; helps bring in the scale of the scene.

Agree with above.

Really good textures on the stones and good lighting. The watering can is a fun addition and as Henry wrote, good for the scale.

Cheers

The rocks are superb, some of the most unique, detailed, and interestingly textured ones I've seen lately. The plant leaves seem to have somewhat too random texturing though, it looks like fractal noise rather than a leaf texture. With that problem addressed, I think this would be near photographic. Nicely done.

Very natural boulder textures and color variation. In all this image pops. Agree with Oshyan regarding the plant leaves; but regardless, a super composition.

Thanks for the comments, everyone.
I'm working on a version with improved vegetation. There is something about one particular leaf image that
isn't working right in this configuration. At first I sort of liked the oddness of it and kind of looked past it, but it needs attention.

New version - tried to improve the veggies.
