Description
This one was inspired by a scene in a documentary DVD film ("Winged Migration", recommenden watching, if you like great nature films. Lots of inspirings shots and scenery in that!)
The main objective was to try and capture the clouded misty mood over the river.
But - I didn't think was good enough nor particularly interesting etc. at first, so I didn't wan't to upload it. My daughter, however - always my most trusted critic - thought it was quite good, so here it is :)
Vue with colour/levels correction in Photoshop. 2 ecosystems.
Rendered in "Superior" with global ambience, 3 hrs. render.
Foreground trees made with Treepro, some groundcover grass made with Bantam3D Grass 7.
Castle by rodluc2000, hut by svenart, other buildings from baument - thanks.
Thanks for viewing and for any comments and votes you might want to leave.
Have a nice day

I think your daughter was absolutely right. Your mist just makes this whole image come alive.
Lovely, quiet and serene; like you caught a perfectly silent moment.
your foreground is sumptuous, water, mood, hut and grass .... but birds are not in scale. Great composed picture
Looks really good, glad you uploaded it, nice reflection on the water
Beautiful! Love the water and the mist. wonderful composition
Very pretty scene. I really like this with all the different trees and the subdued lighting.
Beautiful scene. I like the fog. Well done!
Perfect view and excellent Light and Atmo - wow
amazing. i love the grass, i love the mist, love the atmosphere, love it all :D
Great image. Succeeds largley... my only criticism would be the textures and lighting on the buildings... not as good as the rest of the image. Steve
Very nice indeed. I can repeat what has already said.
Listen to your daughter, sounds like she giving you great advice :) Excellent job. My only quibble is that the trees in the midground on the left are quite similar. I agree with celtxian about the textures on the far castle walls, but the others appear fine to me. Again, Excellent Job!
Beautiful image, love the atmosphere and lighting, very well done:-)
