Really nice, Lonnie...Thanks for the diversity! ;)
And your terrain is not bad at ALL! It seems very believable to me, and considering that it's suspended in the sky, that's a nice trick! :D

Nice looking landscape. So much detail and great effects. This is definately one of my favorites :tu:

[Vikki]

This is awesome! Just practicing! I wish my practice was as good as yours. If it was I'd have finished images while I was practicing. :D

Cool image! :tu: :tu: :tu:

Kind? You want me to be kind? I don't think so... ~L~ Going to thump on you to teach us all that when we get our hands on the program. Looks super.

wow.. this has got to be the best ever!! All the details! Like the roots hanging, the flow of the water, the rainbow.. and the perspective! Amazing!! I can just feel the height! Am lost for words to describe how good this is... :tu: :tu: :tu: X's 100000

[Slosh]

Fu...! Oops, almost couldn't help myself. This is magnificent, Lonnie! Very detailed, illustrative, ethereal, dreamy, etc. I'm with DLee on this one...you need to be thumped (on the head) for thinking this would get any negative feedback.

what to say? ah, yes: hall of fame stuff, thats what it is! the one and only itsybitsyminor flaw i can make out is that the perspective of the lake seems not to match the terrain, i feel at the lakes backside the trees should reach farther down to avoid this slight bucketeffect... but then: what do i know about physics on floating islands? nada! :D

kudos and thank you for sharing this inspiring awesome vista!

mentat7 your the man,greeeeeeeeat image it looks like your having alot of fun with your practice :tu: :tu: :tu:

[Kaz]

Nice job. :tu:

[Mentat7]

Thanks for your kind comments everyone. :)

Juandel...hehehe...you caught me. The lake is actually made from a flattened sphere but it is tilted at an angle. I did that so it could be seen. When I attempted it at the correct perspective it looked like a river so I tilted it. :D Call it "artistic liscense" :D

I like a lot. It is a picture of a fairy tale.
It reminded about the floating city where elves


lived in the manga 'Bastard' of Kazushi Hagiwara.
I like that white vapour under the water fall
with rainbow. Nice. You hit me again. :)
P.S. If you can say(I know about restrictions telling about the beta) did you use a fiber brush
to add trees? And the branches coming from
below the terrain?
Hope that answering this questions doesn't
mean to reveal ZSecrets
:D

[Smiles]

Wonderful piece! I thank you for sharing :)
