Description
My first presentabel TG2 render
I am astonished about the render time, 64 hours for a pic width of 4400 pixel.
With a pentium 4 and 3 Gig RAM.
Wow and it is not water.
I hope you enjoy :)

Wonderful sky, golden light, terrain... 64h are not so big, if you consider the size of the render, the rays, two clouds layers, etc.
Very beautiful render, but such a shame about the render time. Unlike Olivier, I don't have the patience... neither do I have a machine with so much clout. So I will admire other people's efforts with a degree of envy.
top work - yes, wonderful sky
Beautiful render. I love the ground details, high clouds and sunbeams but some of the lower clouds seem a bit, well, out of place if you know what I mean. I think they distract the eye from the rest of the image which is fantastic. This is the first time I've really looked at your work by the way. Your gallery is amazing!
splendid !!
Very nice ... Bravo!
I think thats got to be one of the best and beautiful atmospheres ive seen anyone make in TG2 so far !
great one, worth the time you patiently spend !
Excellent image- the sun angle/POV is great; wonderful clarity to the atmosphere.
LOL, Welcome to the slowest render times on Palnet Earth, but the outcome is very lovely indeed!!!! The TG2 Update is faster, I am unsure how much, but my times seem to be much better ;^)
Wonderful Tg2 work! The atmo and the depth is fantastic!
This is a very "presentabel" render indeed! Gorgeous light and nicely detailed surface Those long rendertimes are no surprise because of the reasons Olivier mentioned. Had a render with 4 cloud layers on 800x600 that took 52 hours... And the result was far from presentable.
I'm sure they'll address the LONG render time (mine has terrible renderlenghts too) in the full version. But this is a FANTASTIC image!! I just traveled to Tucson, and this could be a photo from there. Keep it up!!
A first render, and an excellent one. The sky is just splendid ! Worth the time spent... (but 4400 pixels width was not necessary, IMHO)
64 hours!!! Awesome sky the clouds really look 3D and excellent terrain too.
Ist klasse! Tolle Wolken!
super landscaps, surface und perfecte Sonnenstrahlen!
Beautifuly done!!!!
Incredible work! Great atmo!
What a spectacular Vista! This is a masterpiece. The surfacing and the terrain alone, are just stunning. The atmo is I think, about your finest. 64 hrs. WOW! If you're not selling this one,...ya should be. Without a doubt, a Favorite.
Very beautiful work!
Though clouds are very difficult to work, you made the most of them here - what a view - gorgeous!
beautiful work excellent coloring it was worth the time involved
It is more than just presentable; it is beautiful; and, it depicts a very realistic, low sun scene. It reminds me of a southwestern sunrise somewhere in the desert. Congratulations on a wonderful, first time presentation of your Terragen 2 creation Dotthy!
You have wait for a long time to show us your first "presentable" stuff. And your effort give us a wonderful result. Splendid work, Dotthy.
Wow!!! Doro this is really gorgsoue! Love the details in the landscape and the sky. I'm very surprised at the rendertime too but the wait was very worth it!
Wow, 64 hours... Very cool pic though, hope the next one are a little faster for you...;)
An excellent piece! Congrats!
Agree with Christian !
Wow!!!! A fabulous sky, Doro!!!!! Definitely worth the wait!!!
