This is one of the most photorealistic and beautiful works I've ever seen.
Everything's just marvelous, and I love the theme too.
The plants on the foreground show your unbelievable attention to detail.
The contrast between the tree and the sky is absolutely photolike, as you've shown
elsewhere, the combo Terragen + POV-Ray can lead to awesome results.
I can just hardly notice some moire patterns on the pond, but maybe it's due to the
JPEG compression.
This will make it into an outstanding zazzle poster I hope.

More likely we'll be able to purchase the poster from zazzle... most of his works are
worth it though. :-)

Yes, please render a 80000 x 60000 pixel version for me. I'll print it and
hang it somewhere in my room.

As nothing I have ever seen before done with Povray.
Amazing artwork.
I've been watching it opened with irfan at full screen, and for a moment
I've felt the breeze blowing, the birds singing, the calm...
Maybe a frog croacking? ;-)
As always, a pleasure.
Bye

You've made me reconsider using low radiosity settings in my scenes.
With settings as low as you mentioned a person can get away with a lot.
As for the media in the leaves.... it seems a double_illuminate_map
shouldn't be too hard for those patch-makers looking for a project. With
a double_illumimate_map you could make even normal leaves behave
differently when backlit.. without the need for an inside texture.
Nice image, very photorealistic (especially the tree's reflection in the
water).

Hi Txemi, glad to see you again.
Yeah, I'm terribly sorry but things got terribly busy here recently. I haven't done
*anything* with POV for the last four months... I almost forgot how to make a chrome
sphere on a checkered plane... :''-(
Won't do anything 'till 2 August for sure (preparing yet another exam...)... I feel
sooo ashamed *sob*....
BUT... I promise: that won't happen again. <regains faith> :-)

That happens in real life with ponds like this...to me, it's a nice
little detail that makes it look very realistic.
The only problem I see is that some of the shadows are too dark,
especially on the cluster of plants along the fence to the left, the
shadows are nearly black. The only thing that really tips me off that
this isn't an unprocessed photo is the different tree in the
reflection...if it was included in a bunch of photos I wouldn't suspect
it was computer rendered. A really nice job on this one...
