.. and so you should be. Excellent texturing.
Any chance of a look at the code

i agree!
but i think a solution could be to put the wall behind the tree!
the shadows just need some fill lighting
nice tree Tom!

Hmm, thanks Ben and Jim - yeah, I feel the leaves are hiding too much, but
better lighting might resolve that. I did try cutting down on the leaves, but Lu
complained.
Moving the wall sounds a good idea - except that my intent was to render the
same scene as the winter version (still, that's screwed now anyway, since I
won't be able to reproduce *exactly* the same tree in both versions).

That tree is just great and well-textured, it looks like one of these great
Andrew Wyeth sycamore tree paintings.

...but could you fix that sky? It must be the darkest summer sky I've ever
seen, even in UK... I'm just looking at a reference photo and the blue is
rgb <98,144,204>/255 while yours is an ominous rgb <97,97,123>/255. (it's a
WIP, I know, I know)

WaheeEEEY!
I'm not sure about that grass, but what a tree! Man, that's fantastic!!! You
should do this for a living or something... (Or maybe you do? How would I
know... LOL)
But seriously - it looks realistic, and it looks dramatic and eye-catching.
Lovely shapes and gorgeous textures... What more do you need? 8-D
Well... <smiles sweetly> actually, something or other seems to have chopped
bits out of the smaller twigs. Oh, and about that second version... the wall
looks somehow wrong - maybe just too many shaddows - and the leaves do hide
too much. They look a good shape though - probably just needs different
lighting.
Did I mention "wow"?
Andrew.

<0.5,0.5,0.85> but with light 0.5 ;) - but I'll try your suggestion. At some
moment I'm going to play with volumetric clouds. I have some nice cloud code
around from old megapov, but I haven't worked out yet if it translates to 3.5 at
all.
I'm currently working on the grass and rock textures - and looking forward to
trying out the double/triple layered grass that others have played with - a
green layer, a dead layer and a 'straw' layer (i.e. a few high thin yellow
strands).

Oh, thanks for finding this. I haven't got around to scanning my Wyeth's
landscapes book to use as visual references.

It may be interesting to make sure that the sky and sun colors/textures are
right before tweaking the plant ones, because we usually see plants under
the sky. Plant greens take a lot of tweaking in any case.
About the layers trick, having another layer of slightly different green can
help too. We can really be thankful of the way POV-Ray does instanciation,
because it's one of the few 3D software that can manage gigantic (mesh)
plant populations without complaining.

That's quite ok - I haven't been online in ages anyway, so I hadn't noticed
;-)
