Just when I wanted to get back to photography after feeling a lack of Bryce inspiration, ICM blinds me with his *'magic of light'* challenge... which I might add, I entered a scene to. But it doesn't end there does it!! Be proud of yourself ICM, you started me on a new Bryce journey; street scenes!!

So here is a work in progress.
Just the road and pavement to start with. Both are made with terrains, and water added to create a bit of atmosphere.
I photographed real cobble stone streets, made height maps from them and used the photo also for texture.
Instead of curving the road, I used two water plains at around an angle of 3 degrees for the gutter water, and also slightly tilted the pavements toward the road. The whole thing gives the impression of a curved road surface with rather sunken old pavements.

The buildings as yet have no detail....coming soon.
