Description
We still have very winterly conditions here in Denmark, and I'm really fed up with it :)
But in Vue it's possible to long and dream...
Vue 7.4 render, loosely based on some photo references from the web. Occasionally I work this way, it's a good way to "sharpen your eyes" (and technique).
Items from Cornucopia3D, various other sources and myself.
Minor postwork in Photoshop.
Thanks for taking a look, comments etc. welcome and appreciated.
Have a nice weekend

Stunning piece of work..."v"
I thought at first that this was a photograph! So beautiful and real looking. I must add that I am in love with that water, lol!
wonderful!
As usual very well composed and executed. I live in Oklahoma USA and we have had a long hard winter this year like much of the U.S. Looking at your picture I can just feel a nice warm sun with a bit of a breeze. On using photos, I too like to use photos for backgrounds. I have found that a scene directly from nature or in a photo has a lot of what I call "visual noise" in it. This is a lot of little details that a casual observer often overlooks. But if you leave out this type of detail in an otherwise natural picture an observer immediately senses that something is wrong even if we can't put his finger on it. I was wondering you have ever exhibited in an art show other than here? Anyway keep up the good work. Michael Day
No word but that's perfect in these obstinate winter days
Wow!! Very realistic and beautiful scene!! Great work as always!!
Nice lighting. Almost looks like a photo.
Wonderful image! looks great in full zoom, such detail :)
Absolutely astounding. The realism of the light and shadow interchange is masterful. My only small criticism would be, although the rendering of the water on the bank is excellent, the verge of the bank should be muddy and have some stones and river detritis. Otherwise it is not only flawless but entirely beautiful. How big is the file? I wouldn't dream of replicating such a sense in Bryce because of the necessary file size. I have given this delightful piece a score of 5.
