Description
I got the idea for this after I loaded FirstBastion’s amazing (and huge) Rural Crossroads set. I live in a rural area, where trucks carrying hay are a frequent sight, as are bicyclists, so I wanted to show one’s journey being momentarily delayed by the other.
But after making some stunning landscapes with TerraDome2 recently, I found the scenery in this piece a bit boring, despite the addition of flowers, cows, birds, and a tree. So I decided to use this piece to start learning my way around Topaz Studio 2, which I recently purchased in order to add painterly effects to renders. I definitely prefer this version to the "as rendered" version, but I probably could’ve amped up the painting effect even more!
Rendered in May 2020 in Poser Pro 11 Firefly at 4000 x 2250 pixels. View full size on my blog (or by clicking the blue "Open Full Image" button above).

Living in the country in my youth, I can relate strongly to this observation. Never any traffic of any kind on the old rural roads until you needed to go someplace. Then it seemed like everyone else had the same idea! LOL! Excellent image! Love it!

Looks like a wonderful day. What set is that?

It's called Rural Crossroads and it's by FirstBastion (at the DAZ store). This render shows only a small portion of it. Behind the camera is a tunnel through a mountain! It's a pretty cool set, as are most of the ones I have from FirstBastion!

I really like this image - just the way it is - the light effect just makes it still look real - I think it's perfect.

It is a very cute and fun piece. I remember as a young lad going to my Uncle Merrel's farm. My first ride in a 18 wheeler hauling cows back from Texoma.

Wonderful bucolic scene!

This could be my small town. This has a Norman Rockwell/Grandma Moses feel to it.

Nicely done, it is cool how you added the caution arrows for the turn in the road. Excellent quiet country scene. Superb!

Thank you for the comment! I can't take credit for the caution arrows, though, or any other aspects of roads (and road signs, telephone poles, etc.), as they come with FirstBastion's Rural Crossroads set.
