Think of happy times bushwalking, as you wearily walk out of the forest and
discover your home for the night...
A follow-on from a post of a few weeks ago. The heron is similar, as is the
idea, but everything else is different.

There's so much to like and appreciate in this image. Peaceful tranquility.
Shows lots of work. The water and its rocks are really quite nice.

The heron looks like it has too few triangles(?)  Is it a bicubic_patch
model? If so, you might want to increase the patches' u_steps and v_steps,
to make it smoother.

I like this scene tremendously.

So, I hate to make a few (small) comments, but why else post, if there are
no comments? :-)

I think the lava-like ground looks strange, and I would expect that on
Hawaii, not in the Autralian bush, or am I horribly mistaken? Why not use
some really well-weathered, lateritic (red) soil or sandstone texture?

Good work on the plants and reeds. They may need a little bit more
randomness around the y-axis, or suggest some breeze, but then have them
bend more or less in one general direction.

Kenneth already mentionned the heron. The model is excellent, but the
ruffled feathers are difficult to get right, I guess.

I like the hut and the wood texture.

Overall, great image! Waiting for more!!

Thomas

Wow! I like this... It looks very peaceful.  I want to eat a picnic there.
(Maybe  I'm a bit hungry so my stomach had to add it's comment too) How was
the house constructed? Which modeling program or is it CSG?

   Excellent Joanne! Like Charles has said, I too would like to picnic 
there, but more than that, I would like to live there. My type of place, and 
in fact, I lived in a place very similar to that (the environment), when I 
was a nipper. (Sigh, it got burned down - long story). :/

    Good composition, nice pov. Heron could do with a little more work, but 
good so far.

My first thought was "I would have thought Camp Davis would be better 
upkept."  Then I realized... wrong kind of Bush. :-)

Impressive detail and complexity.  The grass and reeds are particularly 
good and add much of the realism.  I would be intereseted in how you got 
the wavy look to the tall grass.

Excellent scene!
I agree with Thomas comment about the lava.
I must add my 2 cents : the relatively sharp shadows make think of a bright
sun but the light is faint. I'd multiply sun rgb value by 1.5 or more.
