OMG! Forgot to mention Lyne's great animals! Sheep from Lyne's Creations subset of her Domestic Animals set. I decimated them down to 5k polys here.

Well done :) I love the terrain work, especially the one to the right, where it appears plowed & ready for seeding!

Thanks all! The terrain was very easy in Vue 5i. Just a 512x512, 16 bit height map, 3 gray rectangles in PS, separated by thick black lines for the ditches and gaussian blurred. Imported into Vue Terrain Editor and did fluvial erode, dug out the planting furrows by hand for an imperfect look, piled up soil between them and added grit to all surfaces. The 2 ecosystems are on planes just under the terrain, with the same material as the terrains. Ecosystems let you displace their objects upwards, so that they start right at the terrain surface. Most of the work was in modfying the look of the materials and messing with the terrain scaling to fit the camera viewport. Also used a very long lens (250mm) and moved the camera way back, to show both side ditches in the camera viewport.

Shouldn't be too difficult to jump over the barriers here :-))) Great mood, that is sure. A perfect illustration of those words. Klasse.

Cold and bleak just the the old man's heart. He needs a warm fire and a bit of love. ;)

O que separa o outro de mim? Quais s essas vores da nossa vida? A distcia entre os blocos de terra parece mima, mas ao mesmo tempo intransponel...

A huge space of no feeling and cold thoughts separates the man and the woman.On his side, the ground shows his working, on her side there is still a piece of life and maybe of love.

A simetria da imagem me agrada; o modo como o autor usou a vore no meio do quadro, ou o que restou dela, como uma parede entre estas duas pessoas. uma imagem que pede do espectador uma continuao e um passado, pois frisa um momento que necessita de explicao, diferentemente da maioria das imagens daqui. Gosto como a cor e o estado em que se encontra a paisagem conduzem o espectador ao estado de espito das pessoas dali. E acho que o que, principalmente, me atraiu a ela foi sua similaridade com uma cena de filme que o que sempre buscamos: este instante em que as coisas acontecem.

Ent assim quando tudo para. A barreira geogrica se confude com tantas outras t difeis de explicar.De repente fica frio e silencioso.N sempre assim que se come o fim?
