Description
Thanks for looking. This is an experiment in image based lighting. I think this might be the secret to realistic looking images, but I could be wrong. Let me know what you think, and if you have any tips for me to make the next image better, I'd really appreciate your help.

she is pretty!!;0
nice lighting This has Vision Imagination Creativity and Excellence 5+
The render of her is nice, but doesn't match the background. Image based lighting is the key to great renders, but you have to choose the images carefully, not just to generate color, but also shadow quality. Your BG is very dark and contrasty, but she is very evenly, flatly lit. You would expect her to be in dappled, mottled, forest-ish type leafy shadows if she was "really" in that environment. As it is, she stands out as "unattached" to the BG, attractive though she is. You need to cast jagged, leafy partial shadows on her and vary the light more. Even if she was in a forground clearing, the overhead sunlight would be more directional from above.
Excellent!
Wow!!!!She is absolutely gorgeousand great background,excellent work!!!
I think you did a good job with the lights. Wonderful render!
Very beautiful and very nice! very ewll done!
She looks wonderful. Nice experiment.
Excellent work my friend :) Sorry for late comment, but I had a lot to do in real life last week.
Superb art work!
I think she looks pretty nice...Everyone differs on lighting, but I think it could be still brighter...5 stars from me still...All I ever find in the woods are ticks....
very sensual pose and lighting
Nice character... very nice Hugs
Excellent work.
It's a great render but actually the trees should not be that blurry. If they were farther away, yes, but closer, no. And yes, a few feathery shadows falling on her would be fantastic too. Still I rate it 5. :)
The image and character are great and I agree with you about IBL, it can make a big difference to an image, I'm not an expert in IBL just learning also. 5+ :0)
Love the contrast of colors and the skin texture and lighting. Excellent work... Very effective...
