My real name is Marlene, nicknames are Marly and Marcy and I live in California. I am the Mother of 8 grown children, 5 daughters and 3 sons, the grandmother of 22 and 1 more due. Since I can remember I have had a great passion for art. Two of my sons can draw beautifully on paper and canvas although I was never blessed with that talent. Then back in 1998 I got my first computer and was constantly looking at all the art I could find online. Not long ago a friend introduced me to Renderosity and I was like a child at Christmas taking in all the beautiful art. I started playing around and decided why not try my luck at it? And I do enjoy it tremendously and have made so many friends here at Renderosity. Several months back a very close friend here at Renderosity introduced me to the world of Bryce and now I am addicted to it. It's a wonderful program if you enjoy scenery and landscape as I do. Just recently I have been teaching my daughter "SassyLittleAngel" to use Bryce as well...you can see her work here at Renderosity too.
I am a huge fan of this beautiful online site of Renderosity which most of us here call "Our Town" or "Our Home".... thank you Renderosity for making my dreams come true!

Marley I agree with Dennis. Waterfalls are probably one of the hardest things to do Bryce. It takes practice, alot of practice. You are on your way. The lighting and sky and other detail in this is very good.

This reminds me of the picture where stairs are going in all different directions. People are walking on them and they are sideways and upside down. I don't know if you wanted that effect, but this picture has my brain thinking ideas like that - thank you. I guess what I'm saying is, the land and lake look like they belong together and the waterfall placement should be higher up towards the top of the picture. I haven't gotten into doing water or nature yet, but when I do, I think this picture may help put something strange together - I like strange and unusual. LOL ...do you mind if I use this picture and dedicate a picture to you? You have been favoritized!

Well for one know that waterfalls are not easy I haven't gotten that one yet (well not much time to practice either) I spoke with dave yesterday and as soon as franks feeling better I will have a mentor once more so for now I do small stuff; love it all great work!

Again, glad to see a few folks here that are trying to help by noting the Waterfall doesn't look natural. It looks like a paste and I see a sharp straight demarcation line where the falls and the lake are overlapped. The lake & mountain terrain look real good. Great atmosphere. Let me know when your ready, I'll teach you how to make a real waterfall in Bryce. Anyway, still a decent image Marly. Big hugs from Dave :^)
