Hi jasonmit. I like your modeling and your basic composition in this pic, but the haze looks like it is set too high IMO, and everything in the background then becomes a little too "blue". The length and angle of your tree shadows from left to right make it appear that the shadow of the last tree to the right parallleling the porch would be touching the row of high hedges in the right background. If this is the case, than the hedge would be too close to be that affected by atmospheric haze, unless the smog where you're at is much worse than here,lol.
Beautiful. And the changes did improve it.

brycetech, thanks for the tips. I'm in the process of turning down the ambience on everything and it's looking much better. I'll also be using soft shadows. I probably won't use the other shadow tip on this image, but will try it in the future. I'll try grass models, but there's a lot of space to cover. Thanks again.
this is MUCH better! but as mentioned..if youd but do the transparency thing, you'd say "WOW" yourself! :) oh the plants I mentioned...I shoulda been clearer I didnt mean put them everywhere..just here, there and yon... like places where youd expect to see them (around the base of the trees, at the edges of the walk...you know, places where the average joe would trim just "so" :) gotta say tho, this one is a big step above the first one :) BT
