Couldn't tell if you were really wondering or not so to answer your question:
yes, the first (top) is rendered, both day time and night time scenes are in
fact.  The 2nd (bottom) set of images are the digital camera photos.
Not sure how well people are going to see the very dark background in the night
time render, it's the same as the day time one with the exception that the POV
camera had been lower since it was closer to a flat ground level before I
changed it thinking it wasn't at a more correct hill elevation.
In checking since then I find that I'm at 770 feet here (which I already knew),
Tennessee river (between here and there) is at 550 average, and the Space&Rocket
Center should be at about 700 to 750 feet elevation near as I can tell from a
contour map; this would make the top of the rocket higher than my place here.
So as it turns out there's not much difference in elevations.  The valley here
is shallow and wide.
Thanks for looking at it anyway Sam, even if it wasn't what you had thought it
might be.  ;-)
