Description
Just a little PS tweaking of lighting, contrast and saturation. I've omitted doing these things in the paste to avoid having my images look like they fell into a Crayola box.

That's exactly why I don't do postwork, either. :-) Beautiful scene. Love the POV. Corrie
Wonderful vista and realism, Bob!!!
That's a darned decent photorealistic render!

Ahhh, yes. That resonates, Bob. Kudos.
If you do it right they look better not worse in photoshop. Try curves starting with auto, many times that is all it needs, but if it doesn't look right make adjustments and take snapshots to see the differences. There is still a little color casing in this one. It is a bright sunny day in the desert..it should look like it for true realism. Curves or levels is your best bet. Try taking the courses at lynda.com from the experts and you will see what I mean.
great as always
I think that there must be a trick to achieve photorealism in TG2 with minimal - or no postwork. Other than the trained eye seeing the difference between real and rendered vegetation, I'd say on this you've gotten as close to that as you ever have before. Keep up the great work!
Looks great, very realistic!
I think the subtle postwork is a perfect touch!
A very nice render. I like this kind of landscape. Perhaps a little more details on the foreground (little stones - dust - dead things :) on the ground)
On my monitor this looks more photo-realistic than your previous renders. Photographs have contrast and usually don't look washed out...unless there is too much sun and is overexposed. This looks great...IMHO very near photo-realism! I've never seen a photo done with crayola's. "Crayola" almost sounds like a dig at me...I use Terragen and PSP....not crayons, I am a contrast and saturation freak and admit most of the time I over-do it....but, I must say while my images are overdone, your TG2 images though very good, seem under-done, pale....almost colorless. We all have different monitors, view settings, and opinions but, while your opinion may seem right, only my opinion matters to me...my old eyes need color and contrast. :) Are you making your images for me....or you? I hope it's for all of us viewers. Still selling vacuums aye...Hoover man? :) Seriously, great job Bob! P.S. There are contrast and darkness adjustments in the render camera settings...I always set them lower because TG always renders too bright.
Mark, first, you say 'old eyes' - hell, I think I'm the oldest guy here on RDR. My eyes still work; and, yes - although maybe the scenes I make seem washed out sometimes - but, they portray realism. BTW, TG2 has a contrast/brightness setting that you can adjust to your heart's content.
this one is especially good Bob, damn near 100% photorealistic!!!
So beautiful.... like these little plants in it....wonderful panoramic view
Very, Very, Nice Work on this Bob!!!
WOW excellent!
This is wonderful, Bob- a really fine piece of work. Realistic and superbly composed.
Great realism!
a natural composed landscape! ;o)
