Sera
In questa immagine ho tentato di riprodurre l'illuminazione di un pomeriggio inoltrato. Il tempo maggiore l'ho trascorso nell'impostazione dei parametri atmosferici. Per le piante in primo piano ho impiegato delle bitmap acquisite tramite scanner ed applicate a piani 2D; ci? ha consentito di ridurre notevolmente i tempi di calcolo. Con Photoshop ho inserito il nome; ho inoltre sovrapposto due livelli della stessa immagine in cui lo sfondo ha una sfocatura "gaussian" ed il livello soprastante ha l'effetto sharpen ed un valore di opacit? del 60%. Questo conferisce una certa morbidezza proprio alle aree con maggior contrasto.

I'll have to trust LitoNico's translation for this one. I know english, a bit german, russian and my own - bulgarian, just not italian:( That put aside I can tell I like this "Sera" the most of your posts. You are trully going for a realism and you achieved it. The sense of environment is to the max, excellent choice for textures! You have my vote.
amazing One of the most convincing landscapes I've ever seen. I'd agree that it looks like a photo, except that I know that real foliage should not turn black that way. The foliage can be made more lifelike now that I have uploaded material examples for solving the foliage shadow issue. See Rhododendron Render Examples for the issue I'm referring to. Please try the effect I created and see if you like it on your foliage. Your eye for detail is terrific. Your sky and atmosphere are extremely realistic to me. Where did you get those plant models? Anyhow 5/5
Interesting effect, using the gaussian blur and sharpen for different parts of the image. Atmosphere is spectacular, plants are very good, and hills are great. Full marks.
I couldn't follow all of your description. However, this picture looks like a photograph. Excellent work.
