I decided to apply the grass from my "bliss" image to a more interesting object,
so I made this rather surreal scene.

The grass looks far better than I thought it would do. Each blade of grass is
straight, but there's realy nice curves in the overall effect because they lean
with the shape of the fractal, and also there's a turbulence pattern displacing
the tops of the blades so you get the feeling the wind is blowing across them.
Also there's a halo effect round the edge, which has happened completely by
accident! :)

I like it, it has a nice unreal feeling. What do you think?

Yowzah!  Looks great! Much better than that XP BS.

Now put a ladder or stairway down the left side, and a deckchair and
umbrella on the "deck" and advertise it as a vacation rental ;-)

Yeah, I'm kinda surprised that the grass looks this good in close up since I
originally wrote it for more distant shots.

I like that idea! :)
I could have a row boat down the bottom of the ladder too...

Good ideas, that's the kind of thing this scene needs. Though at the moment I'm
playing with the lighting instead...

I have to admit I didn't think it was that good, but people really seem to have
picked up on the atmosphere of it so I think I'll develop it further :)

Would you care to explain a little more in detail how you've
gone about creating the grass? Placing, object's orientation,
how many are there, texturing? It looks really great.
