The Moon rotates around the Earth, the Earth rotates around the Sun. As sure as this will keep happening the seasons will continue to roll around just the same.

Well as some of you know I had a block and now I'm kinda out of it. This peice took me 5 hours for the renders, and about 3 hours to put together. Thats like a total of 8 hours O_o which is MUCH longer then what I would normaly spend on my pics. Also all of the files and data together is like over 100MB O_o So you get the idea that this is a much larger project then what I normaly would do

Ok so now let me tell you how I did this. I used Bryce 5 (as I normaly do ) I just grabbed a standard tree and just put it in the center. I then zoomed up on it so I got a good angle and lighting. So after doing the fancy camera work I went textured the trunk and leaves for the spring section and rendered it. I then did the same with the other sections while only changing the textures to suit them. I finnished with the winter section where I removed all of the leaves because it was more wintery. If you have a look the only time the trunk/brances texture was changed was for the winter section. So I rendered it all and I ended up with about 4 9MB files just from the renders.

So once that was done I went and did some maths so I knew where to copy from the images. For this I used Paint Shop Pro because thats about the onlything that I realy have to use at the moment I drew up the borders using vectors that way I could get the mesurments right and what not. I did that and then I coppied each section into the border image I had. I realized that I did my maths wrong so I had to get a larger selection of each season. So I finaly got the right amount (actualy it was more then I needed ) and moved it into the borders. So once I did it for all four seasons I went and added text to it. Originaly it was going to be white but it didn't show up on the winter section so I decided to have a colour for each season. So thats more or less how I did this image.

Well I hope you all enjoy it as much as I do


Note - Don't say that Autumn should be Fall because fall is something that you do and isn't a real season (or at least in Australia)
