A nice set of trees!
What do you find is the best way to remove the white background?

If you're on photoshop,

select > color range

I found a value around the 70's seemed to work pretty well.

Thanks for those links. that's great stuff.
It would be great if there was a special 'post process' section in the gallery forum.

Cheers,

We've started a Post Processing section in the tutorial section, is this what you had in mind? I know it is a bit thin at the moment, but it will grow as time goes by and people post some tutorials.

That's great Juju. IMHO the post tonemapping of the render output is primordial.
Sometimes bad renderings can be 'saved' by using the right Pshop tricks.
Alternatively, sometimes bad pshopping screws up a rendering that basically was pretty good to start from.

Looking forward to see some good tuts in that new section.

Thanks

Those tree images in that link are commercial and almost certainly copyrighted- although the guys's been a bit foolish posting such large previews (and no legal notices!), but nevertheless using them would surely be a breach of copyright. I edited the post with a note to this effect. As usual, if it seems to be too good to be true....
