Cherry Eve (Members Only) I have been toying with this image for quite a while now. I could never quite get the sky looking quite right or the perspective accurate. I was inspired to persevere with it after browsing through a book of photos of the New Forest, UK.

Celtic Twilight (Members Only)The abbey was modeled in Lightwave and transferred to Vue d'Esprit. I probably spent more time trying to get the atmosphere exactly as I wanted it than I did on the rest of the image put together. i think the effort was worth it resulting in a really dramatic sky.

Glacier (Members Only)I was emailed by a visitor who pointed out to me that most of my landscapes tend to be of a tropical or water-based nature. He asked if I plan on creating any images of valleys or mountains. This is my response. Believe it or not there are over 90 fir trees in this composition. I also spent many hours trying to get the mountainous terrain exactly as I wanted it with fluvial erosion and all.

Canyon Gateway This image started out as an experiment on terrain clipping in Vue d'Esprit 4. (Previously I had only had experience at clipping in Bryce 5). Through trial and error I carved out the archway found in this image and then added the surrounding canyons and vegetation to complete the scene.

GansuI went for a chinese meal on my birthday (3rd Sept for anyone who wants to send me gifts :-). On the wall of the restaurant were several images of the Great Wall of China. I was impressed with the walls surroundings and carried out a little research on the net. This image is my interpretation of one of the many regions through which the Great Wall runs (the rural area of the Chinese province, Gansu.

Monument Cove The monument was modeled in Lightwave 7 and then imported into Vue. Taken completely from my own imagination, I am particularly proud of this piece.

Foreign Field I used a preset Vue sky which originally had the clouds positioned at the top of the composition. When the bombers were imported I arranged them so they were flying upside down and the flipped the whole image in Photoshop to give the impression that the clouds were below the bombers.

Loch (Members Only)Being my interpretation of a cold but colorful winters twilight on the banks of a Scottish loch, I used a particularly wide 'virtual' lens to create the expansive skyscape. A day time version is also available depicting a more threatening stormy sky.

Palm Drive (Members Only)Inspired by the beaches of Miami. This was created by recycling the wireframe world of 'Bora', an image also found in this collection. A simple change of camera angle and location, a new sky and time of day and voila!

OregonMuch work went into creating and positioning the plants in this piece. Both the ferns, bushes and trees were created using Vue d'Esprit's excellent vegetation generator.

The Needles (Member Only)Based on the needles off of the coast of the Isle of Wight, UK, a fair amount of artistic license has been applied with 3 vertical rocks instead of four.

Red Maple Originally just a doodle, I added the atmosphere and background terrain at a later date. To my surprise, this has become one of my most popular pieces and achieved No.1 in Digital Blasphemies' Users Gallery Top 10 in June 2002
