Quite a bizarre error.

I've been working on a 'Toy Town' military story and have come up against a very strange errror. I have attached examples below. The middle picture is the finished pic prior to render, the left hand pic is after render in Iray and it would appear that the cobbles stones have been replaced by sand and my two characters are sinking into it. The final picture is after render but in 3Delight. The images were collected via Snippit. The sand pic looks as if it has come from the beach which comes with DAZ?? Is that even possible?
I would be most pleased to receive comments from the more experienced artists and DAZ users please.
Thanks everyone, have a nice day.

Are you using an HDRI for the background/lights? If so go into the iRay render settings and turn off draw ground.
Hi Kenshaw, thanks for responding. The truth is I don't know, I'm still very much a learner. I will do as you suggest and maybe I can learn something else.
Thank you again.
Hello again Kenshaw. I did as you suggested and all is now fine. Thank you very much for your input, most grateful.
Rendered in Iray.
