Can I book a holiday there?

I believe that Virtual Travel are the only company that will book this for you.

What worries me is that it looks like the edge of the world - a bit of rain and you could be washed over the horizon

Hans would like it there, look, no ospreys. Stuart seems to know more about how to book.

By the way, did I ever post this one? It shows you what you see if you do fall off the edge of the world...

What software did you use to create that picture Ken ?

Post by **HansV** » 19 Jun 2010, 07:46

Ken uses a free program called Terragen Classic. See Gallery for some samples of what's possible with this program.

As Hans has already said, I used Terragen to create the picture, specifically TG v0.9.4.3 aka TG 'Classic'.

TG 2 is a much more powerful beastie, capable of much, much more than TG 0.x but it comes with a steeper learning curve and hefty hardware requirements unless you have a spare PC that can be left to render the image for hours on end.

You can find out more about both versions and get them

What's the problem? If you've managed to get a ticket why can't you go?
