Description
V5I/P6/PS 7/HEX 2
I got more ecosystems in this one than Michael Jackson has had nose jobs ;)
I first waited 54 hours (GI render) for the first render to finish only to find that I didn't like it and wanted to change some things. I guess 54 hours gave me lots of time to think of stuff.
Here are all the changes but unfortunately it had so many ecosystems that my rig wouldn't render at GI. :^(
All the plants except the bamboo are Lindas Lush stuff, thx so much you make the best stuff
Pagoda,dress and hair from DAZ. Dunno know where I got the Japanese light from though.

that is very goreous and excelllent!!!!:)
Very, very nice. Just out of curiosity, how long did it take without GI?
Very beautiful picture and great deails. Excellent work!
This is absolutely fantastic Gary. I'm really looking forward to seeing what you'll produce with Vue6 64bit ( have I already said that? ). I'm sure that you'll find you can go even mre eco crazy and still get shorter render times. Awesome work.
This is gorgerous and well worth the wait. So many small details to view, lovely!
Fantastic result, great scene and composition, plus the patience of a Saint, reminds me of my Amiga days !!! Top shelf artwork ~Cheers~ :o)
Lush and beautiful; makes me happy just to look at it; and can keep looking for ages!
Wonderful landscape:very nicely done!
Marvellous scene ! Keep to enchant us with your tremendous imagination and skill to render it(a little slow isn't it :o)? what a patience!)
very fine work!!
I know I keep saying this for your stuff - but that is absolutely gorgeous! Just a beautiful image! Sorry about the problems and rendertime - I feel ya - Lew ;-)
yow, it's so beautiful - eyes are popping and jaw is hitting the keyboard. The effort is certainly worth it. Only one 'misnome', it's not secret anymore ;-)
Superb very original scene, as usual. The vegetation and is well made very dense. I think that the central alley would have gained in realism if you had used a texture of distribution on your central ground
Incredible work! You are the best master of Vue.
Magical! Impressive work on foliage and composition! Bravo!
Stunningly beautiful!
most excellent as usual well done
wow, that is simply a breat-taking scene! great detail and the amount of vegetation is incredible. a very beautiful and excellent work again! :)
One of the good thing in life, those days, is to find that message in my mailbox : "garyandcatherine has uploaded an image on Renderosity.com!". I'm never disapointed ! This one has an amazing variety and density of vegetation, and never at the loss of the composition ! Bravo !
Absolutely excellent piece of work, Gary!! What a brilliant composition here!!! I love it! BRAVO!!!!!!!!!!
gorgeous render! superb composition, very well-thought out ecosystem mappings, everything is stunning :-)))
Wow! Superb work. My hat off :)
beautiful (and realistic scene) with fanatastic details and plant
A beautiful and contemplative scene.
how lovely! beautiful work.
Lack of GI is well balanced by the high contrast and the lush lush colours. XLT lighting too. Wondedful scene again! just got Hex2, hope I'll be able to create nice stuff with it, but right now, I'm pretty puzzled with it! 5+
Outstanding artwork of great beauty! Love every bit of it. :) ***** Britta
