This repost was pretty much redone though it doesn't look much different. I did reuse some of the postwork from before. The first version took 28 minutes to render; this one took 5 hours and 16 minutes. All that for soft shadows. heh heh! Well, I think it was worth the wait, plus I got to add the Celtic cross to it. I'm considering the addition of a cemetery but I'm not sure that many of these places have them. The thought of a cemetery surviving is a bit ironic.
Hope your week is great, and
Thanks for looking!

most excellent well done
Definitely worth the wait! This one is even more spectacular and appealling. Beautiful effort...bravo!
Fantastic!! Well worth the re-mix!!! The softer shadows really make it dreamy!!! Well done my friend!!!
Well done.
More than anything in this, I like the background. Its got the feel of the highlands and I can almost feel the soft chill in the air and the gentle breezes. Very nice!
very well done background
Ironic indeed, the dead dance on...bust'a'move...err, thin-guy ! well yes the shadows looks much softer now, but I still reckon some volumetric lighting would really top this off nicely, kool stuff Ken Cheers
this looks super . I like it
Yes, looks really fabulous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!bravissimo!V:DDD.Hugsxx
Very nice work. I just checked back some of my photos of a ruined church I visited on the NW Coast of Scotland and yes, it does still have a cemetery in pretty good nick compared to the church. You've a good eye for the intense green that the ground can take on in this kind of scene and certainly in Scotland/Ireland. And PS, thanks for checking out my gallery, really appreciate it :)
Lovely render indeed. I have seen a photo of an old Viking settlement in Greenland.. a church almost identical to that still graces the landscape.
