Sorry - it seems i made a mess with this post. I really did not want to
waste precious server space. Here are the missing remarks:

I made this one after the June picture of the calendar I have in my office.
In the original photo there is a Scott's Pine growing out of a crack in a
big granite rock. Since I was not  able to find or make a good model of a
Scott's Pine I decided to replace the pine by a bush made with Gill Tran's
tree macro. The lizard is a Poser model made by Noggin, all the rest is
native POV-Ray.

Thanks for looking. Regards, Christoph

Nice, the lighting isn't extrmely realistic, but it has an interesting
painted look.  The conifers look a bit too identical.

How are the clouds made?

Hi

Well the foreground looks nice and the clouds are wonderfully done, although
the base of them is a bit abrupt where I presume thay are coming into
contact with the container.  I another note I think the greens are a bit too
green and the trees don't seem to look right for some reason, also the stone
in the distance looks a bit too polished in my opinion.

All in all a nice picture nonetheless.

Kev

Clouds are made with stsky.pov by Jaime Vives Piqueres.

Excellent!! Once in a while, somebody posts a great picture in this group,
but it's not everyday. Yours are magnificent! How did you make that "hole"
in the ground, up in front?

Very good ground textures. A pleasing composition of colours and contrasts.
The birds add life.

Regards,
Hugo

First I made the rock height field by applying a black to white y gradient
to a rock object similar to those shown in the picture and a camera pointing
in -y direction. Then I made the crack height field in PhotoShop by pianting
a white crack on black background using a smooth brush. Finally I loaded
both heightfields into HFLab (you could use the original Dos utility or the
Windows version built into Leveller), scaled the crack to 0.3 (norm command)
and subtracted it from the rock. The resulting difference heightfield was
smoothed 2 or 3 times. Thats all.

Regards, Christoph

Wonderful image! It has the kind of depth I like to see in 
renderings/illustrations, the kind I hardly ever have patience for :). 
Good job!
