Paleolithic humans would have needed deeper caves lest a dire wolf should wander by and get curious...
But I like the concept - nice work!

I could not tell these from actual photos from telescopes or probes... Nicely replicated!

I was browsing the Terragen product home page yesterday and under "Learn / Tips and tricks / Support Diaries: Scene optimization example #1, I noticed the image looked remarkably like something I would do. So I began reading the article (written in 2019 by Oshyan Greene - I still miss his presence here...) and it contained this, which I had not ever seen before:
Our scene today comes from user "RichTwo" on our community forums, a skilled Terragen artist with a lengthy history and a distinctive style, often depicting desert or barren alien worlds.
I wouldn't exactly claim to be so much skilled as I am imaginative. The best description of my style could be "Frankenstein-ian" That is, very little of what I create is truly of my own making. I habitually take bits and pieces of others' work, edit and patch them together, and sometimes getting results I'm actually satisfied with! And I credit any "skill" I may have to the many here with the real know-how who've done all the heavy work.
But I was a bit honored by Oshyan's words, and it came as a (late) surprise.

I too , now that you mention it, think the trees are too big! I'll re-render.

Yes, I had sometimes the same problem.
The scene locks good, but somehow unrealistic?
With the time I realized, it's all about proportions...

I think Dirk is right. Might be interesting to reduce the trees by 50% (or more) and see how large the mountains then look. I like the 'cubes' on the right too.

New renderings of the moon in 4K.
Colors are not true color, slightly modified.

Good to see another mhaze render!
IMO
In my eyes the proportions do not fit.
If the trees would be smaller, then the mountain and the lake would fit much better!
