Description
An image depicting the desert at nighttime. Files used are:
• Night Background clip file - by dandelO available at the Planetside forum.
• Canyon - by Tangled_Universe - available at NWDA.
• Dry Shrubs - by Walli - available at NWDA.
The planet provided (used as the moon) with the Night Background file was overlaid on the sun. The visible disc of the sun was unchecked. Two cloud layers were added - one for above the horizon; one for below the horizon. Both cloud densities were set very low as were their altitude.
I have some other points of view in mind for future scenes.

Excellent
A superb night scene Bob!
The global effect is very interesting and different ... Thanks!
Beautiful! Corrie
Excellent and mysterious render. Love the looming cliffs in the background. Eagerly awaiting some boffin @ Planetside forum to resolve the shadows / glow problem. Apart from a second crop render round planet or maybe uncheck "Shadows off atmosphere" in the lighting params, I'm clueless.
Very nice Bob. You working it good.
Great mood! Needs perhaps some more details on the surface like seen in your other renders. Greetings
Fantastic night scenery and mood, Bob!!!
Very nice work. Well done.
Very nice landscape scene!
With the fading cliffs in the background and the light fog, this looks like a dream. Very nice!
Beautiful view... wonderful concept, Bob !!
peut-être un peu trop d'étoiles avec cette lune magnifique, mais ce décors est grandiose !!
this is really awesome Bob, excellent work, never saw something like that!!!!!
Good that DandelO's background worked - I know you've been striving for the (closest to) perfect nighttime look. The BG cliff face is looming, ghostly, and almost ominous...
Excellent Bob! Can't wait to see what else you might do with this scene! Can the new Terragen create realistic star fields as well?
I love the faint mountains and the plants. Very unusual effect, and it worked well.
oh superb
Wonderful work...most excellent!
Love that lighting Bob!!!
Beautiful desert night and composition, Bob!!
Magnificent mountains and perfect light and mood. Hauntingly beautiful. Excellent work, Bob.
what a mystical render! outstanding and impressive! ;o)
Wonderful work, Bob!
