Hi all 3D-dudes,     ;)

just a quick email to inform you about my last pic: "The Garden"

Point your mouse here below and take a look: 

	http://www2.altnews.com.au/povlab/povlabdir/month/garden.jpg


Hope you like the pic, as i liked to model it!  =)

This time no tech info, just not to boring people!   :P

A really *HUGE THANKS* flies to Denis, who helped me a lot with this
pic: he gave me some little but *fundamental* suggestion to enhance it,
beginning from rotating a bit the rain, through phonged the column, to
putting something in front of the gate (he suggested a really
transparent fog layer, but i wans't able to find the correct value for
it, sorry), so i decided for leaves  :))

Thanks Denis! 
Without your suggestions the pic would still looked too flat!!

WOW.

I especially like how the gate columns came out. What otherwise might be
negative 'obvious computer' features (the smoothness, bump-mapping, etc)
have been turned to strengths by the context (rain, weathering, etc).

One minor point I notice is that some of the pixelation is apparent in the
base of the left column. Combined with the leaf right in front of it, it
doesn't quite work. Maybe a little focal blur focused on the gate to drop
the clarity of that one leaf. Then again, you might loose the interior.
Maybe a little trick on that one leaf, or a little sharpening of the base
of the column.

But... once again, WOW.

Really neat. I got ousted from the url first try and luckily saw this
post again because someone else responded to it. Perhaps thats why
others haven't commented.
A picture with "feel" to it.

WOW-------
A couple questions from a beginner, 1> how did you do the rain? my attepts
are fatally flawed.  2> those stones are way cool could you post the source
for the texture?

The rain is a 3d procedural texture included in the POVLAB texture library
(coming with the package) created by Denis Olivier, author of PovLab.

No source for that texture... simply because it's an image_map texture (that is
a Targa mapped around the columns)

Thx for comments  :)
