The Shrine

Another landscape based on a picture of a Shinto Shrine I found in an architecture book.

It's not perfect, but if you look at the WIP image below, it got much better over time. Emulating nature is a *tough* job and I have only the greatest respect for those that do it well. Thanks to all who gave me advice for improving the image. I learned to finally use camera fog to some good effect as well as Depth of Field. As always, if you do have any feedback, positive or negative, feel free to pass it on.

Here is the final image - 200k at 600x800.

Here is a larger image made up of WIPs, some sepia toning and a wireframe (180k)
