Thanks so much Cath!
My gosh, looking out my window those Predatron trees are wowsers!
LOL guys..funny btw just saw back to the 80's Girls want to have just fun outfit render on the DAZ front page .. nice ! Congrats ! AlexLo
I was just in front of my closet and could not decide what to wear in my afternoon , should I go to gym, or have some fun ..
Let's do the decent thing and share the workload - you go to the gym and I'll have fun, ok? ;)
Fun in the gym! =D
"but I can't see it change at all"
The effect is more pronounced at more northerly (or southerly) latitudes, and greatest at the poles, as you have said. Closer to the equator it is less pronounced and less detectable by the human eye except over long periods of time. However, if you want to see it, get a telescope or powerful binoculars mounted on a tripod and focus on a specific object. I am not an astronomer, amateur or otherwise, but several years ago I inherited a telescope and when I set it up for fun I discovered immediately how much movement there was. I was focused on venus or mars, I cannot remember which, and had great difficulty keeping the object in the field of view, having to almost constantly adjust the instrument. That is why the expensive instruments and the "big boys" have motors and mechanisma to rotate slowly and keep them focused on an object of interest.
While I agree on general with the statement, the key is the last phrase. In fact, something people forget about 3D rendering is just a simulation. I my opinion, Realism in 3D is overrated. Advertising photography is the art of hyperrealism, or can you buy those strawberries? Every movie produced in the last decades will pass for some post-production work as color correction and fx. So, nothing is really what it seems.
Remember, while Iray is physically based, it is not necessarily physically accurate. In the real world, an emissive surface in front the camera cannot be hide. It can be on Iray. In Lux render you cannot hide a mesh light. Someone will say this is accurate.
How about a swim in the pool? Perfect day to practice your underwater swimming with your flowing long hair. But be careful the pool guy wants to slap an iray watermark on your backside as soon as you get out of the pool.
It's been a long day for my girl, hosting a barbeque for family and friends. Now that the guests have all left, she takes a few minutes to enjoy the sunset and find a measure of peace after the chaos. "Let's do this at Mike's place, next year," she mumbles around the straw. After all, her brother's got a bigger backyard, and a wife to help with the clean up!
Thank you, Cath, for your generosity.
Used "The Backyard" and a free hdri from hdrmaps.com for the set and environment. The hair is Asteria Hair, (longer and fuller volume,) and the sandles are from Casual Romper. I used ParrotDolphin's free leather Iray shaders on the sandles. The drink cup and straw are from Everyday Snacks.

I had fun at the gym last time I went. Just chase a runner and make grabby hands at their butt. Jusyt a few feet and ty not to laugh yourself stupid.
Awww thank you! In the words of Sally Field "You like me, You really like me!" LOL I couldn't of done it without my excellent makup, hair & wardrobe stylist ;-)
I see you got it ! hehe ..good one
At Mike7's place next year ? LOL
and you welcome Anita !
The world is created in your brain .. strawberry field nothing is real ... especially if the world around us is just light projection , we see stars that don't longer exist and if you go enough far away from the earth with the speed of light and look at it back with a super telescope you will see Dinosaurs walking on so what is real ? the world you create or render or simulate in DS is the world of your imagination and how you see it for real.. for you it may be real enough for others not ..it depends of the level the other users are currently on ..17 years ago we make sounds of wow and omg for something today we see as cartoon .. back then it was realistic .. we can go on and on ..so for real..nothing is real lol I am looking forward what the future will bring us
...Leela Wanna have Fun....
LOL @Kyoto Kid looks like Abu Dhabi in the background lololo
Thanks, MEC4! I had tons of fun with your freebies, though I had to retexture them; I don't have Iray. But that's no problem at all.
Ich wusste nicht, dass Du Deutsche bist - irgendwo habe ich gelesen, Du seist Niederländerin. Aber die meisten Niederländer sprechen sowieso ein ausgezeichnetes Deutsch - im Gegensatz zu uns im umgekehrten Fall (schäm)... Eine tolle Rest-Woche wünsch' ich Dir!
...several of Stonemason's Utopia blocks. When you mentioned that, I could see it (needs palm trees though).
Forum's at it again no notifications of posts at all
Was getting lots of updates then partial updates and now none

I am half German from my mother side from the Hannover area exactly Barsinghausen :) But I am just Dutch citizen ...my ex hubby was from Dutch-German origin , before I moved to the Netherlands in the later 90's I was living in Karlsruhe in the state of Baden-Württemberg in southwest Germany near the France-German border my brother still living there but in Freiburg - Schwarzwald , later I moved to Essen and after to the Netherlands .. and now USA .. my next move will be Australia - New Zealand and after coffee with Stonemason I will (Voyage, et jamais ne reviens !) lol now I feel like a Global Citizen for real !

Not living by calendar Simon .. and I don't have one .. I don't like to be limited by time ..it is too stressful and I want to keep my ears intact ... creation need inspiration...I am a free soul ..express myself
Schwartzwald, that's a very lovely region. Myself I am Dutch by birth, lived in Denmark (Odense), France (Vichy) and now Northern Ireland (Belfast), love to travel and move every few years, but the health makes that difficult now.
