I originally designed the tree for another image, but it took on a life of it's own.

A quiet place to let your mind wander through when things get too hectic.

Bryce 5's trees refused to work the way I wanted, so I used complex models in the solid glass spheres instead. This turned out to be a mistake. Due to the intense reflection depth rendering, this took a week to render.

A single leaf falls amid the suns rays, simple yet poignant.

Aerial terrariums, my first use of the new interior reflections of Bryce 5. The trees are another of it's new abilities.

My first image with the new version of the popular 3D software, Bryce 5 just out. The ferns are imported, but the trees are one of Bryce's new features.

If I sell a million mouse pads, I could probably get a house like this. I average about 5 a month, so it may be awhile longer.

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.

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.
