Where can I find quality spherical skies for use in twilight render and sketchup? Just looking for bright sunny with a few clouds

Pro users have access to several high quality here, but there are probably a few good free spherical treeline sky images out there. Search this forum, search the web. It takes time to build up a good library of treeline skies.

I actually went out and took pictures myself. Scout a good place with nice grass and good trees at good time of day, Piece the pics together and create the spherical sky in photoshop. This is how they are made.

Don't forget :!: :idea: :!: to load the free night-time Spherical sky for this tutorial found in the zip file download link above. Go to Twilight Render Environment dialog and browse to the sky image "Spherical-Treeline-Lake-Pano-Sunset2-dar.jpg"

Free HDRI images ... we suggest gettting the hdr treelines.
We suggest the 4k or 8k version. Larger HDR could fill the RAM on your computer during rendering.
