Some of the usual Vue blurring evident in those renders, but it's an impressive collection.

She was one of my favorite artists on Renderosity until she left the site a couple of years ago and I lost track of her.

It's the waterfalls that impress me.

Do you think the waterfalls are natively rendered? :D

No, I suspect either real flow or some kind of photo trickery.

Neither of those...well...a bit of photo trickery perhaps.

Usually/often 'they' (them Vue users) use textures on alpha planes to make the waterfall.
There are a few (old) waterfall alpha products for sale on C3D.

Some of the images are rather nice. But on close inspection they do not make me want to buy vue.

This whole landscape Niche in 3D feels pretty stagnant for a while now. I am really looking for some new developments soon, I hope. Speaking of which, I would sure like to see some renders of this procedural erosion I have heard about... some place on the internet, cant remember where I heard it  ;)

Can't get to that page, keep getting:

Your server is running PHP version 5.1.6 but WordPress 4.1.1 requires at least 5.2.4.

wassup with that?

Martin is correct the water falls are indeed alphas, She shared a bunch of them on DA several years ago, I see them used in many of her renders. I always liked Drea's work. Shes a big Filter Forge user as well which I think really enhances her work.
