EDIT : I ran out of time to add this image yesterday... apologies!

I played the front 9 last night and can rightly say this one is added to my favourites list.  It is not a boring course for a real one like many here are.  You did a great job on it mate.

 

I have one issue to post about.  I did not mark down the holes and should have but many of the front 9 have the AI's shot markers in the wrong location.  I use the snap cameras in play and found that I had to re aim if I was to take advantage of using a full driver into an easy to land area.

 

Regardless olazaboll you did a terrific job.  

Thank You ... Glad you liked it .... To be honest I'm not an expert on having the AI players play correctly , but I´ll do more research on the subject for the next course

Had no Idea what your original post was about Ian, but now I know ... Thoose pictures look like Monet paintings ...Fantastic to see my course in that kind of setting ...  I'm so curious how they are made ... I saw simular from Mika Henrik on his latest linkscourse that looked as stunning as this.

Thanks Ian for posting the pictures ... in this case its more about the guy who hold the brush (you)  , than the one that digged in the ground ( me )

Thanks Olazaboll....  you're welcome to the images. Happy to portray what appears to be an amazing course. Very nice and well done....!

 

As to how they are created, in several stages naturally. Wander the Course and frame the shot... now decide what time of day you want to see the same framed image within and if necessary, alter the time to suit within the PG settings. That makes it a little easier, or you can often leave PG running and return after 15 mins if you set the Time of Day to 12 hrs.

Once the image is there, and you have PS, then you can begin using whatever tricks you know how, to develop the image a little differently. There are numerous filters likely available that make things easier too... however, sometimes a reflection requires a little layering and belnding to make it look a little realistic. We all know the CF isn't quite able to fully deliver on reflections yet....
