I rendered the posted scene, but there is no water. Assuming that you use
just a textured plane at a specific level, you could start with subtracting
a noise3d(x/10,y,z/5)/10 or something like that to the function. That way
you lower and rise some parts. If you only want to lower some, use min()
with it. You may have to rise the whole HF a bit, though, as Hf's can't get
'negative' IIRC.

I like your picture very much. It reminds me of one I once made years back
in school with ink for the trees and water-colors for the background. It
hang quite a while in my room.
Yours is more impressive.

Okay, I got the scaling all wrong. Perhaps this will give you something to
start with:

function{
      FG
      +FB
      +FD
      -FGR
      -noise3d(x*6,y,z*6)*5
      +5
      }

I used a water-plane at y*4. It's not perfect yet, but with a bit of
tweaking might lead you somewhere.

Hope it's of a little help,

Thanks Marc that will probably do it.

Thanks again

Yes, one of the jobs on the list this is just a preliminary sketch

Thanks

Here's a picture that I just thought I'd mention, because it has some
similarities:

Hey, that looks great, I think it's got a lot of potential.  I think you should
make the furrows looks depper, maybe by enlarging the furrows; I think if you
added some regular vegetation it might help, I'm not sure tho.

Great start!

I would expect the tree to be more sillhoutted probably.

The hue and intensity are good I think.

I've seen a very similar image to this one before. Here:

And I like it very much !
Please keep us updated as the work is progressing.

I'm not sure if I understand what you need here.
Please explain more if it's still problematic.


Btw: The link to the AM-image at this page seems to be broken:

The Preacher image makes me laugh. Well done.
