i agree its bright, but i thought it was a photo at first glance.

Good composition, almost right in line with the infamous rule of thirds ... which works well here I think.

For your first foray into Terragen ... rather impressive start.

The one suggestion I do have is to search out some more atmos. Renderosity and Terranauts are possible sites to check.

And possibly considering offsetting the central placement of your main focal subject. In this case, the sun.

Bit too static and forgive my choice of words here ... pedestrian. Predictable, you know. The visual dynamics do change however subtle you may think that aspect is in the overall composition.

That said ... nice work really. And but of course, thanks for sharing your work with us.

It's well done, it almost looks like a photo. It's a bit bright but that doesn't bother me too much... it's very simple and well, not as interesting as it could be, especially with computer graphics. Maybe add a twist next time :)

It is very nice. It is too bright, but for some odd reason, it does it justice.

You captured a wonderful moment with this image. The clouds seem to be racing towards a vanishing point in the infinite blue of sea and sky. The effect is really striking. I'd like to see a "subject" for lack of a better word. Something, anything to break the emptiness and for my eye to rest on. I think that if you'd (somehow?) managed to get a bird flying in the foreground or a funnel cloud or even a small sea monster your c-index would have reflected the high quality of this shot.

Hey there Gibsonburg dude. So now you are using Terragen, huh? I have no idea what that involves, but I have seen a lot of images made with it. This is pretty good, and the brightness is OK to me. Nice clouds, and water. Can't wait to see more.
