This picture belongs to chohole. The question is how can I get that effect with the mountains, they look far, and big. I have problems with this, because my mountains creates big shadows, so they look unreal. Please your help is very welcome. Tiler Pantera Bono (13)

You can either turn the shadows off in your material editor (for the terrains material). Or add more haze or fog to diffuse the shadows or decrease the overall shadow intensity and select soft shadows in the skylab.

Well, like you said, the reason they look far and big is because they are. Try scaling up your mountain and pushing them back from your main scene. Try adjusting the haze value also. But I think chohole would probably give you some better advice seeing that it it his/her image after all.

ICM has my setting almost exactly for this render...you been peeking ICM? These mountains are way way back in the set up of the pic. I will go away do a screen shot and come back. And Chohole is female btw.

Here you go, hope this helps. Oh and I put my camera trackball on a tripod and used this to push the horizon further up the image. I was always taught that you should have a two thirds/ one third split in an image, and the bryce horizon by default is almost central.

Thanks for the info - being anewbie also i've been having all kinds of newbie distant mountain troubles. :)

Another newbie question. In that screenshot, how did you get the top view to show the entire scene (distance mountains and all). I have a problem seeing this to get perspective in my scenes.

Use the plus and minus keys to zoom in and out. The view will be centered on whatever is selected. So to get everything in view, select all objects.
