Description
I have now updated (at last) and uploaded my finished version of the "old forrest road" pic.
thanks to zxcvb for great athmospheric basics, and h2odog for some smooth bark textures. trees are made by me in the vue 5I plant editor (with exeption of the bark ofcourse).
10 hour render time with global radiosity. 57 mil polygons.
feel free to rate and comment the picture. i would apritiate it. thanks!

The lighting and the POv are both fantastic. I would say that the scene needs some soft shadows, they are too harsh, or maybe set shadows to 70-75% only, and the rock material isn't that great either, looks a bit plastic. Other than that, a spectacular view.

I too think it's a nice woodland scene. I'll offer up some suggestions for rendering that may help, but take them as just that...suggestions. It's just the way that "I" work. I've found that for outdoor scenes like this, Global radiosity is usually a waste of render time. Global illumination almost always has the same look, and will render faster. I would only consider radiosity when there's something that should be reflecting light to illuminate other things. For example, an indoor scene where you want light to bounce off the walls, to fill in shadows, or for a figure closeup where the color of a shirt or something should "colorize" the figure's face, etc. In a woodland scene, there's not much that would reflect enough light to make a difference. At least a noticeable one. :)

great scene. would be cool to have some shape of something coming just out of the shadows up ahead. rocks on the road are distracting... too many or just too 'high'... should be pushed into the dirt more... IMHO.
