IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 

       I know it's there, somewhere. The gentle morning fog, the tree, and the
big field of grass. I just have to find it...

DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 

       I used Gilles Tran's amazing MakeTree and MakeGrass macros for this, what
can I say? They're great! I multiplied the grass patch 100 times along the
z-axis and 41 times along the x axis, to create the field. Then I put in the
tree, the fog, the sky sphere and the cloud plane, added an area light, and
-voila!
As "ground" I used a yellow plane. I made the textures myself, I'm happy with
the leaf, grass and the sky, but the tree could be improved. I didn't want to
rip off someone else's texture, so I tried to do my own, but... Anyway,
"practice makes perfect" :-)
