Okay so, I'm sure I'm NOT the only one who has a lot of time on his hands. Apart from the usual day to day activities I love to fire up my software and practice some of the things I've learned from Fxphd.
Yesterday, I whipped up a procedural terrain inside of Vue. I was going for something quick and surreal (maybe a hint of tropical) so of course there had to be an ecosystem composed of mainly rock and grass. This was an infinite terrain by the way with an aerial perspective of nearly 10. The sky is filled with cumulus clouds with the sun pointing straight at the camera, reflecting off of the surface of the water causing a flare to appear.
Overall, the azimuth and angle of the sun played a very important role in the composition of this scene. I found the look to be very sensitive in that I was only able to change the direction of the sun using orthographic views. For some reason, my camera view(port) outshone due to the sun's rays.
I'll keep playing around with this until I get the look I really want.
