Fantastic! I wish there was the possibility to use DOF to create a little more depth.

Very nice.  I'm assuming we need to register on that site to get the grass...

Photoshop?

I think you need some depth information to create DOF in postwork.

By DOF I assume you mean Depth of Field,I've just recently gotten Corels PSP Photo X2 and really havent gone through any of the features (note to self check for DOF)
I'm curious though that if I had changed the POV to be a bit higher would that have given a better since of depth

Nope - the attempted DOF just killed it.

Looks like a little bit of vaseline on the lens
If the grass in the foreground (I don't know the word - the long ones) were blurred it surely would look nice.

The two sun setup gives that a great mood even it is not entirely realistic.

Without depth information or being able to calculate it at render time DOF is always going to look fake on an image like this so I for one wouldn't bother.

I just downloaded it without registering, it looks good, I have a test rendering now
