Description
In my country, Denmark, chantarelles are often found in places that look like this: Scattered oaks and beech trees with pathces of heather, moss and grass.
(Ever since I started out in Bryce last summer, I've been wanting to make this scene, at last I've got the skills to make it look OK.)
Everything in this picture was made with objects and textures, i.e. no "painting" in Photoshop - but the rubberstamp tool was used a little to touch up some rendering flaws (sometimes I experience these rendering flaws, mainly on the trunk of trees. Strange!)
Grass made with Bantam3D "Grass".

Excellent!Very well done!
I love this! This is the type of image I would love to be able to do. Very realistic! I especially like the heather looking purple flowers and how you've nestled so many things into it...just like nature.
Everything is perfect!! what a lovely place to spread a blanket and stare at the sky!! =)
Awesome nature work, Lars, my hat's off to you. Ligth/shadow looks so real, also an excellent job on the trees and everything.
excellent work! very beautiful scene :)
Beautifully realised and rendered. A stunning image :-)
Perfect attention to details. Especially how the Chantarelles are growing at one side of the tree.
Excellent plantwork. Beautiful mats, so complex looking.
