    Hansmar : both versions are really nice, very difficult to choose.

    ed3d : cool render, a great Bryce creation.

    "Eilean Donan Castle" : the castle is from Sketchfab by FUD-UJEP. Added Bryce terrains and a slab for the water.

    Hansmar - two nice island renders. The second one looks more like a lonely island and the first is somewhat more interesting to look at. Difficult to decide ...

    ed3D - very nicely done Big Island.

    adbc - the castle is certainly on a lonely island and the sky and water enhance this feeling.

    Hansmar:
    Two cool entries! (My favorite is the first one with its dramatic POV.)

    ed3D:
    A joyful scene with beautiful water. - I'd only crop the slightly noticeable square base of the mountain terrain (in the Terrain Editor).

    adbc:
    A very calm scene. Beautiful sky and water.

    Excellent Horo.  Like how the clouds are in front of the islands and the salty residue on the island shores.

    Horo - fantastic idea and well done entry, I love the isles in the clouds

    So many nice posts already.
    @ Horo:
    Lost Dream Isle - Beautiful colors. It's fascinating to watch longer.
    Eight Lonely Isles - A SciFi Fantasy Picture. I like that kind of thing a lot and of course the islands look amazing.

    @NGartplay:
    i love this idea Really nicely pictured.

    @ Hansmar:
    shark island - Both versions have that certain something. I personally like version two a little better.

    @ed3D:
    A picture that tells a little story. Very good.

    @adbc:
    Eilean Donan Castle - beautiful play of colors between sky and water. I really like it.

    I myself will probably have to pass first in this contest. I have health problems with my eyes and cannot work long on the PC at the moment. Hope to be there again next time.

  • NGartplayNGartplay Posts: 2,828

    Oh no Drachenlords, so sorry to hear about your eyes.  Please let us know how it goes.

    I had trouble with my eyes at one time.  I found that moving my monitor away from my face and taking vitamin A really helped.  I moved my monitor 40 inches back from my face.

    Horo, could you use a different water mat in this.  The image looks like an ice shield rather than water.  The island is beautiful as is the sky.  Could you try a different water?

  • mermaid010mermaid010 Posts: 4,997

    Beautiful scene Horo I agree with NGartplay the foreground water has an icy effect, the clouds are awesome.

    Horo : excellent scene, beautiful sky, I agree with the others that the water looks frozen in the foreground.

    My second entry : deserted islands.

    Bryce terrains, free vegetation from different sources.

    NGartplay, mermaid, adbc and Yellow Pen - thank you for your comment and suggestion. I think you were right and changed the water material. I did not replace it above (would make your comments incomprehensible) but have the new below.

    adbc - beautiful entry, I like the vegetation on the small island very much and the atmosphere is very good.

    Yellow Pen - great entry with the dragons and the terrain almost hidden in the thick haze.

    My third entry. (Replaces the one above)

    Wow, these are some wonderful island scenes.

    adbc, the vegetation really brings these islands to life.  I like the water mat and the salty residue on the island.

    Yellow Pen, I'm so glad that you entered an image and it's beautiful.  I love the dragon and the island is perfect for a dragon with all its sharp, craggy points.  Well done.

    Horo, I think this look awesome now.  Lovely island scene.

  • adbcadbc Posts: 3,099

    mermaid, Horo, NGartplay : thank you.

    Horo : I agree with NGartplay, it looks awesome !

    Yellow Pen : Delightful image, the island and the dragons looks great.
