My real name is Jeff Scott, and I live in a small suburb of Tulsa, Oklahoma. I work with and around computers for a living, and it continues to amaze people that I can work on a computer for 9 or 10 hours a day, and come home and stay glued to one for several hours at night.
BIO
I got involved with 3d graphics waaaay back in 1990 with 3dStudio. Despite a change in career paths that took me out of the computer vendor realm, I persisted and found ways to make my love for 3d graphics and architecture mesh in with my current job.
One quirky thing I did was took the office floor plans for a 20 story building, and built a Quake deathmatch arena, which several of us would play over the network. Nothing like fraggin' somebody when they're coming out of the coffee area!
Several years later, I discovered Bryce, and, well.... things haven't been the same since. I've been using Bryce for a little over 3 years now, and have moved on to Poser, Rhino, Cararra, ZBrush and several other apps as well.
I have a very one-sided brain, so I couldn't do an abstract if you put a gun to my head. Hence my addiction to landscapes.
I like to help folks out when I can, and stir the fires now and then too. I joined Renderosity a couple of years ago, and have been here since... hopefully for a long time to come.

Rob Holmes also made a render of the same lighthouse. You might want to take a look at it at http://www.digi-element.com/Images/awb30/RobHolmes/SplitRockLight.jpg

Good job on is pic jscott. I really like the textures you have used on the cliffs, and the water is very good also. Overall this is a very good render of a place that does exsist. Well done. ---- Scott.

Great work! I've been there once or twice, and I think you've captured it quite well. I like the ore carrier in the background, too. BTW, you should see what Trouble did with your lighthouse prop. Here's the link: Split Rock Lighthouse, MN.
P.S. to Alla -- Lake Superior is fresh water, so no salt here! :-)
