Old street

Yep working on it. The headlights are too dark because of the glossy depth not high enough.
I think I've done the accumulation of the leaves, not too much though.

Render of tonight. I will do the trees next time.

Stunning work. I also love how well the depth of field works out in this image.

Beautiful, just beautiful!

It would take it to the 'next level' if you wet the street. =]

Hello!
Big update today. I decided to start again.
Living in Paris, I walked and found littles hidden streets. So I run at my place to take my camera, the weather was overcast it was perfect to shoot textures!
I had in mind a narrow street with uneven. I will mix my photos references with streets of Montmartre.
Here is an example of the vegetation in those king of street:

And here is the first render of my afternoon of work:

It is a basis for further work, i'm not sure about le layout yet. But let me know what you think.
Cheers!

Here an other render, I modified few little things, and made a better lighting.

Looks good. I'm wondering if the cobblestone street would look better with a little less bump. These streets have been used for many decades, they should be worn smoother. That and the tree leaves feel a bit small/sparse. But I like both shots.

Beautiful!

My wife and I just got back from Paris a few weeks ago, and I wanted to attempt the exact same exercise.

You've definitely captured that feel. I would probably increase the exposure slightly, but otherwise looking real good!

best,
