Thanks Guys,
I love doing these. To be in these spaces and watch the clouds move over head, the wind in the grass. Its so much of a treat. Some of the skies rival real ones as you can see by my lead photo. That ones from near my home.I could swear I’d see it on Home.

Thanks again all.

I love this series as it highlights one of the reasons I buy a home: the atmosphere. Good job, I really love the way you look at the places we have or have seen and show us the little things that in the end make it so much better.

It was drawn. I’ll let you decide by whom.

I almost get stuck in the Midnite Glade. The lighting, and just the whole feel for the place keeps me coming back. Great series Storm.

I love this series you are doing Phoenix. It still has that vacation picture/postcard feel to it which is very neat. I too love many of the “pictures” that Home presents to us, I bought the Waterfall Terrace for the look or the vista at the top of it, and it is still one of my favorites today. Nice work.

I can’t run the video for this on the device I’m currently holding but this little article did remind me of something; Zelda, Ocarina of Time. When I was about 17 OoT was about the biggest, most graphically impressive game for any console at the time. It was also one of the first to have a day/night cycle, and this is what jogged my memory; the sky just before night set in on the Hyrulian Fields was a beautiful sight to see. So much so, one night when walking home from the beach I looked up at the sky as the night envelope had just begun and my instant thought was “wow, that’s drawn well”!

I know, the initial thought took me aback too. When I realised what I’d thought, I knew right then that one day my dream of the virtual and the real being indistinguishable was also on that horizon. We’re still not quite there, but Home is as good a place to forget which realm you’re in as any. Skyrim though, is still the tremendously beautiful winner so far.

The view I love the most in Home is the waterfall in the Winter Vacation Villa. This video reminded me of of few more great ones. Nice work!
