Archipelago

1024x768 Size: 295 KB

This started out as one of many experiments in creating waves, but the waves became secondary as the islands developed.

I love how dramatic this one is.  I wanted more room to better see the lighting effects around the windows, but the composition worked better this way.

Blizzard

A serene snow scene to soothe information superhighway road rage.  You can barely see it, but a photo of snow coved trees makes the forest appear thicker, Thanks to Dave of Dave's Photography for the photo.

Blue Moon

1024x768 Size: 260 kb

The memory of a beautiful scene tends to exaggerate the key points, trees are taller, valleys are deeper, vistas are wider, and the moon is bigger.  I used a telescopic photo of the moon to get more detail.

A mysterious glow on a subterranean lake. This image started by accident, with the camera under the landscape, the strange view was too compelling to ignore.

The warming sun rises over fresh snow. You can tell older snow on mountains because all the thin areas have melted away, increasing the contrast.

This was a study of heat wave distortion using Bryce 4. I placed a bumpy glass object between  the camera and scene, for the wave like refraction.

Eruption

This is a combination of two images. Terragen can't yet add the smoke and debris, so I did that part in Bryce. Which came out so well, it made me want to redo the Terragen part, but I had to stop playing somewhere.

I couldn't get much more complicated with the tree, Bryce has a limit to the number of polygons it will import. However if it did have more leaves, I think it would be less interesting.
