Autumnal birch forest environment

This exercise took me about 6 hours in total. I wanted to practise how to quickly realize an idea for a scene. I used Blenders internal Tree Generator addon, a few assets from PolyHaven and a bunch of Collection Instances to keep the scene performant. The Scene is supposed to take place in the morning hours of a somewhat romantic fall setting. Overall I'm quite happy with the lighting and composition of this piece. Were I to redo it I would probably improve the tree textures, as well as add more diverse plants and maybe a specific point of interest like a small boat in the water to direct the viewers gaze.
