3 Free Trees
-----------------------------------
I found these three free trees for Daz Studio by genejoke over on Renderosity.

https://www.renderosity.com/freestuff/items/85136/free-trees-for-daz-studio

I was ready to export as OBJ from DS, or 'rip' their DSF meshes with ($$) DSF Tools, when I noticed genejoke had kindly included their OBJ files Also, his neat 1k textures were Poser-compatible. Foliage Leaves & twigs are transparency-mapped onto low-poly 'flats'.

For this test-scene, I loaded each OBJ at ~300% of standard figure height, set bark diffuse & bump, leaves diffuse & transparency textures.

Several trial renders showed the scene needed a lot of light, something I'm far from mastering.

Eventually, I set Superfly, progressive, 96 pixel samples, 64 vol-bounces and buckets, sent job to my network-render 'Box', which ran in ~1½ hours.

I saved scene as a PZ3 so, if I can sufficiently improve the lighting, I'll post render in 'Comments'.
