Description

Some homework for the CGMA class I'm taking.

The Cactus shadow doesn't make much sense since it wouldn't stay realistically still like that as the day progresses, but I didn't have much time to toy with it unfortunately since it was due in the morning and I had no time to do it earlier this week. So I tried to just focus on the colors and light

When I get my critique back, I'll definitely revisit something similar to this as a daily and mind the details that I rushed through here.

not to be judgy, but shouldn't the shadow be longer at dawn and non-existent at day?
I love it, don't think otherwise, but it IS a LIGHTING exercise...

This is so amazing, I am taking one similar class with Sam Nielson right now Such a great job! But shouldn't the shadow wander around with the time? And also, wasn't dawn caracterized by no cast shadows but mostly occlusion shadows? @.@

nice colors very realistic, but if the morning shows light in the right corner, shouldn't the evening be in the left one?

I like how the cactus is only happy when his friends, the owls, arrive in the afternoon and at night.
