Title: The Way to Urztac Malnos
Post by: Agura Nata on September 26, 2016, 04:26:52 AM
We were looking for the mysterious oracle tree " Quontor Haderlach " in Urztac Malnos , a rather abstract tree , allegedly answered questions .

So we walk three us on the dangerous path through the " Gate of the dangers " the passage to Malnos . Only at night slept brazenly dangerous " rock snapper ," a of dragons which disguised as rocks and after all what snapped in the closer their sharp biter came .

Our Mage Ceria went with a night Crystal ahead , through him she could see the way in the dark well and torches we could not fire because they were together with the flames a welcome " bedtime " for rock snapper

Quietly we crept through the huge gorge that never seemed to end , now and then we heard a hearty yawn from the rock and the snoring of rock snapper sounded like loud rumble of stones . Gone led the skeletons unfortunate adventurer our uncanny way and we already believed it would happen to us as the first dawn the sky was above us .

Because suddenly lifted the darkness of the gorge , revealing a fascinating level freely . Just in time we stepped out of the gorge , as behind us awake the first rock snapper and sniff began , Al Drachos could save his tail just before the greedy teeth of a snapper .

Amazed, we saw a Glass pyramid in front of us , a strange structure grew out of it . She was surrounded by a labyrinth of rocks on the subject in the reddish glow of the morning sun fog patches .

If this is the mysterious oracle tree " Quontor Hader Lach " ?

.From the glass pyramid grows a surreal tree, which was cut with opacity by texture.
The light source inside the pyramid raises interesting pattern to the
glass surfaces.

Great story!

However you did that light source resulting in the honeycomb effect of your glass pyramid and the lens flare...wonderful results.

Thank`s a lot!

My concessions to a fine tune my images is a lightweight lens effect and tone value correction in Photoshop .

By cutting with a picture ( Honeycomb ) in Opacity occur depending on the setting Sphere , Cylinder ... different patterns , depending on the shape .
