Hi Greg,
I really like the way the light from the sunset illuminates the rock formation. Well done! (and thanks for posting in this size).

Happy New Year to you and your family!

I had to fave this Greg. It is beautiful. No telling how much lard my grandmother could have rendered in 163 hours. There is a scene in the movie "How the West Was Won" that this reminds me off.

Jimmy Stewart met the bear in this cave.

Excellent.

Great work on the cave, the lighting in it is perfect, awsome job and works great as a background. Also you might want to take a look here: http://users.tns.net/~mwalter1/Vue_Render_Settings.pdf Gives great tips and advice for decreasing render times in Vue. One great tip is select small render areas that may be problem areas and raise the settings untill the look is good and clean and thats where you can stop. Also larger resolution images are easyer to postwork and generaly require less Anti-Aliasing(a big time eater.)

The easyest way to get a critique out of someone is to think about what they didn't tell you.

Well done, Greg. It looks so real! I can't believe you spent 163 hours. That's over four work weeks! Yikes!
