Thanks, Chris.  :D

     Hmm, yeah RedPhantom, that does look odd.  The green ground falls away to a creek bed, and those trees are on the far bank beyond the creek.  Behind that is the backdrop wall.  I'll have to get another look with the camera slid to the right.

     Also, in the first pic (the pano shot of the entire building), the stream, visible on the right, has a moderate slope so I probably should make that section of stream semi-chaotic.  Not waterfall, but not level quiescent stream either.  Gentle rapids, I think.

     You have a good narrative going.  If you envision a particular house, you might draw a scribble of it, maybe with written particulars, and maybe I can whip that up.
