Looks a little empty...was that the intention?
Yeah, partly. The picture was intended to have little action present in order to convey a calmer mood.
Although for some weird reason, the save files got corrupted and the shadows didn't work once I returned to working on the scenebuild, so I couldn't complete the picture and I had to go with the latest screenshot I took. That's also why it looks diminutive.
The desaturated bloom washes out the image a little. Autumn pictures generally have a warmer color balance to compliment the natural colors. Still, I love the calmness. Perhaps some leaves blowing in the wind?
I'm not sure, but there should be some flying leaves, you know. But it's not bad, I like it.
I can see this looking way better with the shadows working, sucks that the file got corrupt. Though maybe you could have touched this up in Photoshop?
This screenshot was actually taken while the shadows were still working, but I wanted to have a more realistic 'scenic' look, so I found no need to amplify them. The shadows were much more visible when they were cast on the other side of the apartment block, which is not currently depicted here because I truncated the picture due to the scenebuild's incompleteness.
G-Mod is often unstable for me. Oh well.
