FROM THE COMMUNITY COLLECTION
Lake Mishio and Lake Massima
The terrain has the WintersDayDistantMounts terrain that comes as a ProMaterial with Bryce 7 Pro from David applied. The forests consist of 17 trees made according to the Minitut 20 (Rashad's idea), the clouds are from http://www.daz3d.com/i/shop/itemdetails/?item=11097 (centre right) and were considerably tweaked. The water is my tweaked CalmGreyWater available here. Lit by the sun and my Illhorn HDRI which gives the sky colour and the ambient light.

Brilliant work here. Full marks. Clouds are excellent. Trees are surely the scaling violator here, but it gives the piece a near but yet so far type of feeling. Excellent work here, really top notch.
We've got another wonderfull demonstration of what bryce7 is able to produce (in your hands). For me everything is in place. The mountains texture is very nice and i love the clouds shade it on the right of the pict. My only observation here is that some of the fissures in the mountains seems to look more like hole than crevasse. But perhaps this is the effect you've expected? However for sure this is another fullmark! 5/5 Joyeux No?l Horo!
Thank you for your kind comments and generous ratings. @slepalex - the snow is almost burned out. I think I should have made the sun full white, not a bit yellow to make the snow appear brighter. I don't use ambient if I can help it. Here, I set it to 0 and diffuse to a fourth of the original material, then compensated with increasing sunlight and HDRI Effect considerably. @David - hard to cheat your eye. I'm not completely certain but I think the trees in the forest are too large. That may account for your feeling that something is wrong with the scale.
The thumbnail looks like a photograph - which I always take to be a good sign. Overall the colour choices, sky and lighting are spot on. There is hardly a thing to fault and was to be critical the only thing I would draw attention to is that I am not - for a reason I cannot put my finger on - entirely convinced by the scale across the entire scene. Nevertheless, quibbling aside, top notch work. 5/5
Remarkable mountain landscape! Shades from clouds, woods and a terrain texture were pleasant. I have looked at this material of district in 7Про. If to add in channel Ambience a texture in source A snow will be brighter that seems more natural highly in mountains. To make of 10 trees 100 - good idea!
