Description
Had some fun experimenting here with the light. The image has two suns. The primary sun is set at a 300 heading with a -1 elevation which is below the horizon. At this point, the foreground is too dark so I added a second sun which also is set at a 300 heading; but, with Light atmosphere unchecked, elevation set at 12, Strength set at 5.5, Cast shadows, Do soft shadows, Glow in atmosphere unchecked; and, Visible disc unchecked. This set up appeared to yield a reasonably well lighted foreground notwithstanding a negative altitude setting which makes for a very nice atmosphere for a sunset or rise.
Additionally, I added one of Oshyan's Fill lights set 180 degrees from the main suns at a 10 degree elevation and strength at 0.13125 - Cast shadows unchecked.

The lighting is Amazing, Bob and the population is just right! The distant fog looks like ice on a cold winter lake!! Very, Very Nice!!!
Love the sky.
Wonderful dreamy image Bob, like a scene out of a fairy tale. The light is amazing...as the whole rest. I would love to go camping there :D.
This worked out well! The sunset is beautiful, and doesn't at all look like a two-sun sunset. If it's any consolation, a photographer has the same problems! :) The mountains are lovely, and I like all the little plants. Nice composition.
From back to front this is perfection...Can't count how many times I've seen this in real life and you've managed to capture it spot on with the shadows through the various ground cover...Well balanced and excellent lighting! ~smiles~
super sky, Bob
WOW, awesome image! Fantastic lighting. The POV is great! Corrie
Awesome job on the atmosphere, love it. Have seen many sunsets that look like that.
Thank you all. I am working on another version where it wouldn't look so cartoony.
Excellent work.
Really like the atmosphere on this one!
I love the atmosphere and sunset...also the way the plant shadows seem to point to the horizon and focus the viewers attention...excellent work!
beautiful landscape, great panorama!
Excellent lighting, and I like the long shadows.
a wonderful realistic art work, it goes to my fav's!!!!!!!!!!!
well done with the next work, it really looks more realistic than this! in spite of all it is a stunning landscape pano! one can feel the wind chasing the clouds! ;o)
