        Nice render Fymoro. I have just couple of comments. First one is that shadows are bit to soft for the time of a day. One render before last has nicer (still soft) shadows. Second point is composition. As a rule of thumb you should have similar (equal) height of foreground and sky to have balanced image. Maybe you could add a bit of glow or Gaussian blur in pp to soften the look (very small amount). Otherwise the image is very nice. 👍

          I changed the mosaic tiles color a little bit, and now the water is ok, I think...

            Fred, I agree with Sid that pointing the camera a bit more up might help. Right now it feels like you cropped the sky.

            Also, no need to tone down the pool tile color so much... Check these photos of pools in my city (Some people just love blue pool tiles):

                Now it looks much better. I think there is slight blue overcast to the render so you need to warm up the image as it is nice sunny day. I did quick pp. I hope you don't mind.

                  PP king strikes again! looking great. i dont think the pool distracts anymore. it stood out because it contrasted so much against the sky but yeah looking better. 👍 shadows looks excellent 😄

                      Excellent PP wortk. As already said, sky and pool now really work well together.

                      I only recently discovered the High Pass function in PS and have to say it works so well.

                          Thanks James,

                          In Twilight, I have set the sun slider at 5, and I think that Sepo with PS add more contrast.
                          The Water is a Twilight material made by Majid...👍 😉 Look at the attached pictures, we have a lot of different water material now in Twilight... 😉
                          I really think that Twilight is a revolution in terms of render engine for SU... 😄

                            😲 The images after Sid's post pro are amazing!

                            Will we see the process with a bit more detail in SketchUp Artists? 💚

                                I copy this! I had a small problem with the colour of this house. Now looks beautiful. A beautiful scene 👍 👍 👍

                                  Oli ..thanks 😄

                                  Fymoro I am glad you like it. I did colour and tonal contrast, added warming filter, small amount of blur and glow. Most importantly did high pass on copied layer and blended it. Merged visible and repeated some operations again.

                                    As I said before Fymoro you did excellent job. The last render you did is much stronger in terms of composition and shadows are much nicer.
                                    My intervention was more to do with honing of the render and it was very small intervention to that extent.
                                    Thanks everyone and Ecuadorian, I will see what I can do.
