I thought it would be a nice idea to make a shot with one of my older cars - a shot which shows the Mercedes built for pure nature.

The whole scnee file is 3d, the trees are heavy 3d geometry, every single piece was textured and converted into proxy meshes.

The gras is 3d as well, using various texture maps and mixed together and on top of it with a 2d displacment map.

The DOF was done with a Zdepth Pass as well as the Bokeh and bloom effect.

some different variations can be seen here:
