Description
Now got Infinite - my first chance to play with EcoSystems :)
Volumetric, Global ambience - light balance 100% sunlight -- (is this good or bad? I am tending to prefer more sunlight than ambience?) And no post-processing for a change.
Anyway, I think there's something missing with this pic but I'm not sure what - HELP!!
Thanks for your comments in the past, looking forward to future ones!

I love this, very impressive image! Don't you just love Ecosystem? It has so much potential, let's you do things you could have never done without it. I think your light is very good, I always use more sunlight then ambience, I think I've learned it somewhere in a tutorial once, but I can't remember. The only thing I would leave out (personally) is the lensflare. It looks a bit unrealistic and it's very prominent. The shape of your terrain is terrific, I really couldn't think of anything to improve. My compliments!

I agree about the lens flare - I was looking elsewhere in the image and forgot to look at this - it probably does spoil it. I think I'll need a lot of practise with EcoSystems and probably dabble with creating new plants because the stuff I've done so far looks too bland and lacking variety. Thanks for your generous comments!

Yeah, the lens flare should go, I'm not a fan of this effect. I always use more su light than ambient light, but killling it completely isn't a good thing either, since Global ambiance and GI need a fair amount of ambient lighting to look good. I'm not sure there would be a big difference in your render if you hadn't used GA, just because of no ambient lighting.

I like the image. I think the Lens flare is a bit overdone but over its a great first start

Great start! I agree with the others about the lighting.
