      I'm longing to visit the small towns in the middle of the Ecuadorian rain forest, but work has me stuck in the city. Rendering one will have to do for now. Believe it or not, in the zone where the first layer of clouds touch the western part of the Andes there are some parts of the road with 10x more fog than this image; you can barely see the car in front of you.

      Boring details:
      Idea for scene setup inspired by Kwistenbiebel's instancing/proxies experiments.
      Tree model by canadium: http://sketchup.google.com/3dwarehouse/details?mid=408d857540321092253c7c7615d19168&prevstart=0
      Distribution of trees thanks to Didier Bur's Component Spray with Spray shape > vertices of faces.
      Original image rendered with Twilight Render @1920x1080 in mode Easy 08 for 1h37m on a Core 2 Duo E6300 w/ 2GB ram.
      Fog added in GIMP from Twilight's depth map. I exported the Depth map with several gamma settings and later layered them in GIMP in Screen mode. I also added in GIMP some vignetting, rendered clouds and Gaussian Blur. No Bloom added so as not to upset Richard.

      You won't see the trees, but they will appear when rendered in TWL.

        Nice sfumato, got me in the mood for some hiking.

        Comfortably numb...

          A small suggestion if i may; try using a differnt brush for component spray as at the moment the patterning is fairly obvious.

          Other than that its looking very good 👍

            Sure, I also have to find better trees and give it more depth by adding a few more distant ones. But it's hard for anything to keep my interest for long. Still, I might be revisiting this in the next weeks.
