we walk....

This has a little post color enhancement, but other than that 100% TG2.

Cheers,

very very good mood Frank !
and very different composition and atmosphere from your usual productions.

I like this very much Frank.  Maybe a tiny bit more reflection and spec on the path would give it a little colder and icy feel.

Ryan's advice is good. Great render.

This image has kind of a painterly look. I like it  :)

Great atmosphere/lighting. Are those Xfrog trees?

Splendid render, reminds me of all the times I see something and think dam wish I had a camera with me to capture that.

I like this a lot, Frank. Very painterly indeed.

Good work.  Would work as a movie cover or book cover.  What's out there?
So this is Disney World.  Can we live here?

Thank you all :)
I must say, I'm very pleased with this one as well. It was surprisingly easy to make. Also, I think I am going to use this simple fence more often. To be precise, I think I am going to shop for some more man made apparel that I can include in scenes. Primarily the small things like this wooden fence, or stuff like an old rusty bucket and so on.

At the moment, I'm very much drawn to scenes that put the light itself in its compositional focus. That rarely ever looks "final" without postwork on levels and colors and layer effects and so on, but it's key to come up with the right atmosphere and lighting settings for the scene. If the render doesn't provide "it", no simple postwork can bring "it" out more. Shit in, shit out ;)

Lighting is almost a science in itself. It has so many aspects to work in concert and influence one another, especially in Terragen 2. I was wondering how this complexity can be tamed some, and packaged up in presets. I need to think about this more... and test... and practice. Oh well, so many things left to try, but so little time.

Cheers,
Frank

Very nice render Frank, I love the atmo :)
Minor and only crit is that the sun/glow is a bit big.
Nice simple fence and soil as well!

Cheers,
Martin

A very nice piece of work Frank. I agree about the glow; perhaps a bit less would help. The foreground path leads one into the image.
