oh nice :-)

except the clouds, their color does not fit to the current sun elevation level, and the eye immediately recognizes that. At least mine ;-)

Cheers,

Nicely composed scene. Full on saturation, nothing wrong with that per se, but as Frank indicates let it come in naturally with lowered sun and using more red sky decay in atmosphere and relying less on cloud colour. The scene setting is great.

I hope I realise I don't exist before I apparently die.

Most of the things have been said already. It's very promising work so far!
I like your smooth water, did you do anything special to get that?

Regarding your clouds, as Frank and John said the colors look unnatural, a bit poisonous clouds :)
In my opinion, with these types of scenes with a lot going on and to see, I find a sky almost 90% covered with clouds very distracting.
I think this scene would really benefit from 1) no clouds at all or 2) just a very small cumulus here and there with some soft windy cirrus.
This way it will all be way more balanced.

Really nice layout, with some great models. But I'd like to see this scene with a default atmosphere with a generous quality setting, no clouds (or maybe just masked to hug the jungle hills as a mist with no internal pinks, maybe a cloud bank on the horizon too, but as a general coverage, the altitude is too low). As well as a high render AA and Q, because at the moment it looks like a badly developed colour photograph, the sort I used to get from a cheap dark room setup I used to have years ago.

I has a 1909 water colored photo effect from an old National Geographic. The clouds compete with the objects too much. It does have an Asian print look to it, which is nice.

Hi all
I do agree about the clouds to but after 3 times rendering I let it be and it looks a bit strange as when I re sized it
I use another program and it gives it a fuzzy look anyway i'm doing it again now with a fog like cloud see how it looks  ;D

thank you

Probably the best Bryce render I've seen this year! I joke! ;)

It's nice, I like the smooth water, too, is this from having the smallest scale very close to the wave scale? Or is it fractal based water with the same idea?
Very cool! It does kind of remind me of Bryce, still. :)

Much improved! I am glad you did not change the water. It looks right for this scene.
