Photorealism Challenge

A simple example from flickr: http://static.flickr.com/84/240171406_eb67cfa71b.jpg?v=0
I kinda like this one because it looks like it actually may be worth fragging in.

First, are you looking for a single image that can be used to show off the DarkPlaces engine? Or are you wanting to create a cool map for us to play on?

I was just scouring Flickr and here are my first batch of considerations...

This one is interesting, but probably has too much detail

Or you could consider a different style

I found a couple yesterday under "factory" that I can't seem to find today. They were really interesting because they showed a doorway that opened into another room that had different lighting and different colors.

wow...this one is quite interesting

Too bad there aren't more pictures. I'd like to see more of that area.

I'll bet the photographer has 5-6 versions of that area, but he picked only this one for Flickr

The grass would be the real challenge in this one

This looks feasible but kinda boring. It's just that the warehouse doesn't seem to have anything in it.

Here's a post from a completely unrelated post:

Put shots of your desktop in this thread.
To say this is a shot of my desktop would be a lie, because it is a laptop:

It looks like good CG to me but I like it.

Anybody has an interesting apartment they can post pictures of?

Texture blending anyone...?
