Nice image and interesting technique. I guess I'll try something similiar a
the near future, though I'd probably go the longer and more complicated way
as Christoph described it. You can't have trees just stop behind a hill...

I'd probably use my Surcoat-Macros, and an idea I just had: if I'd place a
parallel lightsource in place of the camera and view from above, the hills
should throw shadows onto the terrain itself. So I only get bright spots
(where placing of objects will take place) where the camera sees it. If I
then "grow" a rim around that area, I'd have a little more space in all
directions... Hm. Need to think about this more.

Anyways, how did you create the tree? POV-Tree, or did you do it yourself?

Regards,
Tim
