3D Art Freebie Challenge ---May: From This Hill I Can See... ENTRIES Thread
From This Hill I Can See...
May, the month when flowers are starting to bloom, animals are getting frisky, young animals are being born. Trees are getting greener. Summer should be just round the corner. ( In the Northenr hemisphere anyway. In the Summer hemisphere it is of course the reverse and Autumn is on the horizon.)
What can you see that is worthy of an image?
What are they doing down in the valley or on the next hill over.
Let your imagination take you there.

And here comes my first entry. At first I was going to post an extra render I did for the last month's challenge, in which I was not completely happy in context of last month's theme, but it would have fit nicely for this theme. But I then decided to go on and do a completely new render.
Family Outing
No story for this render, I'll let the picture to speak for itself. What I can say is that this render was heavily inspired all those family outings and camping trips we used to do, when I was young. While this situation/scene is completely fictional, just looking at this picture I can feel the sun on my skin, I can smell the water in the lake and hot sand on the beach, as well as to feel the hot sand between my toes.

Thanks for looking
Invasion
This cave on the hillside looks interasting. Someone else might be scared of all these "KEEP OUT!" and "DANGER!" signs, but I'm an explorer, ignoring things like them is kinda what I do. After exploring the cave, what feels like hours, I found the exit (or an alternate entrance, depending how you look at it). Exit leads to a cliff and you look down. "What is this? What's going on? MY GOD, IT'S AN (ALIEN) INVASION!" Yes, you stumbled upon an invasion to be started. And all this is happening right under people's noses, hidden by an invisible camouflage forcefield, which luckily, at the moment anyway, didn't cover the cave entrance. Then you remember there is no such ting as luck and realize, those sighs were put there by these invaders to keep people out

Almost Magical
When he had bought this cabin middle of nowhere (seriously, you can't find it from any maps), the old man who had owned it, had said that you can see things beyond this cliff, that are almost magical, if you happen to be at right place at the right time. He had expected it to ment some breath taking scenery, but not this. Of course he wouldn't have ever believed, if the old man had told him about this.

Well, Here's my entry for this month. And this was all done in DAZ, no postwork.
Memories of the War
Frpm the journal of Maria Mirandez: “ It’s hard to believe the war has been raging for nearly twenty years already. It began with the attacks on New York and Washington and escalated from there. Now it has encompassed the entire Middle East and most of the rest of the world. Thousands upon thousands have already died, and thousands more will die in the months and years to come. How long will it last? I wish I knew. All I know is it has been a time of pain and loss for many, and a time of great heroism as well. But, it is the past year that I remember the most: A time of great personal trial and hardship. When a small group of civilians and escaped POWs, lost and alone, were trapped behind enemy lines and one mysterious warrior fought to lead us home.”
