I used Seth's 'Making of Wilderness' tutorial which is available for download as a PDF file at ( http://www.nwdanet.com/terragen-tutorials/11-wilderness.html ) for the creation of this image. Additionally, the following files were used:
• For flattening low spots in a terrain, I used 'Hetzen's Blend Displacement at zero.tgd file which is available at the Planetside Forum http://forums.planetside.co.uk/index.php?topic=8638.new;topicseen#new . Additionally, I made reference to Matt Fairclough's thread http://forums.planetside.co.uk/index.php?topic=7548.msg80786#msg80786 which deals with flattening of terrain areas. With this information, I created a clip file that I applied to the terrain you see.
• The tall pines population was made using the model file called 'Big Pine' by jcinbama which is available for download at Ashundar. http://www.terragen.org/index.php?PHPSESSID=179bc8b8e4e3cef279a9fdb93d641764&action=tpmod;dl=cat385;tpstart=10
• The two smaller populations was made using the files called 'Dry Shrubs' by Walli and can be downloaded from NWDA. http://www.nwdanet.com/buy-packs/8-object-packs.html .
• The 'One Cloud Atmosphere' is a clip file which you can download from the Planetside Forum and was created by littlecannon http://forums.planetside.co.uk/index.php?topic=3691.105 .
In all, working with tutorials is a great way to learn techniques in Terragen 2 and open the way for one to improve upon his/hers' creative work.

The mountain/hill in the background needs a lot of work it looks too monotone. Otherwise very realistic and awesome.

It is so far in the distance that any additional detail work would go almost unnoticed.
The lighting is perfect - the rocks, stones and trees are very nicely distributed. One of your best, Bob.
I'm with Eoin on this one Bob, the details here are exceptional, and providing the links to the relevent tutes is a great help, cheers

As far as i remember your renders , Bob this seems really like a step in a higher level . It is a very good image :)
Kadri.
Nice to see what this looks like Bob! When I received the tgd I accidently opened it and said: "What in the world is this?" Then I realized that I had opened it in the text editor, LOL!!!
This is very nice and the flattening of the terrain works superbly in this render!!!
Really cool, Bob. The only thing I'm not too keen on is the clouds, they seem a little too broken up. Great colours and surfacing, nice! :)
very nice lighting !
