Absolutely brilliant final composition. I love the sky and the green of the grass really looks natural. The lighting is excellent. As a nitpicker, I will say that I notice some degree of inconsistency in the lighting. Everything looks great with the indirect light except the stones, it is almost as if they were excluded from whatever sources you are using for indirect light. Even near the ground this way i would expect some degree of indirect light to bounce up from the ground and nearby ground objects.But again this is me searching like a bit of a nit to find issues. Your work is always solid!
* Thanks, Horo.
Very natural looking render. I like how you elaborated on the foreground with the grass and the stones. The haze came out excellent. 5/5
* Thanks, David. The most part of time was taken by the lower left corner with a grass (pseudo SSS).
Impressive render time. I'm not going to say it wasn't worth it, the scene has turned out very well the lighting is good, but I suspect that you might find that it could have been optimized considerably by judicious use of exclusion and/or an alternative lighting method. Of course, it might have taken hours to find a more efficient rendering combination... so swings and roundabouts, and in the end, once the render is done, it is done and looks great! 5/5
really nice grass and lighting
