Love this one. If the trees were of a different flavor, this could be any one of hundreds of old barns in Cornwall (bottom of UK) where I grew up :-) Very well done!!!

And what kind of tree would that be?

yossam, elms, oaks and palm trees are some of the main ones, though you wouldn't get the palms anywhere near a farm building like this, they're mainly on the coast (I'm probably giving the impression of desert island type beaches, it's not, honest :-) ) Obviously, there are many other tree types, except on Bodmin Moor, where there are virtually no trees at all.
There ends your Cornish Botany lesson for today  ;D

Miles,


The only thing on the disc was an English oak...........couldn't find any elms.  :)

Outstanding render. Really like this version, the change of trees makes all the difference  :)

Added elm................

How about soft shadows? That will soften the shadows of the ladder and leaves on the wall and improve the image even more.

Adding soft shadows more than doubled the render time.  ::)


Just FYI..........there are 12 plant populations in this scene. 3 different trees and 9 assorted grass, weed, and nettles. And all the grass pops have color variation................... :)

I know, but it makes it more natural. I wish we could have soft shadows without longer render time  ::)
