Trees and some plants are X-Frog; chickweed by Walli; voronio cracks clip by mhaze; rock clip by Yossam.
Thanks for looking. Always appreciated.
Good use of the rocks and plants. Just a thought, try to group three of those XFrog cherry trees (one behind the other) and tilt the two behind - one right and one left to make it look like a multi-trunk, larger tree. Have it appear towards the right side of the image. You then open up a space for a large boulder in the distance giving the image more depth.
I like this. Only suggestion I have is maybe to add a Power Fractal to the tree bark to roughen it up somewhat.
Great start. Some of the plants look a little blurred and the rocks seem to have too much displacement.
Will try to do the bark, Masonpappy. As to the plants being blurred......what did I do to make them that way? (I hadn't noticed it....ole eyesight must be going). The rocks are probably displaced too much, but I kind of liked them.....but may see what I can do about it.
Bob, the tree is not a cherry....it is a paper mulberry. It is one of those that someone brought here a landscape tree and has become a pain in the rear.
Thanks for the comments.
Looking at the plants again I think it's the aa, they seem to be very fluffy plants.
So I need more AA.....??? I used 7.
It's a very noisy image maybe a bigger pic would help or higher detail.
Okay, here it is....bigger size with AA8 and detail .8. I tried to make the tree bark have more displacement and color variation....not sure I succeeded there as much as I wanted. Took about 24 hours to render. Way too long for my PL (patience level). :)
On to the next.
I like those changes. It helped the overall look ;)
Looking cool.
Much improved Lyla, it was worth the wait.
Definate improvement. :)
24 hours? May I ask what kind of machine you are rendering with?
Just an ordinary home computer I think. AMD Athlon II x 2 250 processor.....that is what it says.
That is much better.
I like it very much. It's probably difficult keeping this image from being not noisy, since there is a lot of tiny little stuff.
If you could get more depth into this image it would be easier to distinguish between the foreground and the background. Maybe a little haze in the background or maybe some DOF?

I agree with this...some ground hugging haze or DoF would certainly help, but no way it'll be noise free with that amount of small displacements all round.
