Description
This is the Voyager image that I have spent the most time perfecting to date. Emulating the lighting effects of the full moon. No post processing of any type was needed. Check out my topic in the Artmatic Forum for details of how I achieved this effect.
One of the great things about Voyager is that the setup files do not involve huge meshes so every scene can be retained for re-rendering with ease (around 250kb per scene all up).
Best seen full sized. Comments welcomed.

Quite impressive!
Yes Steve - there's a lot more to see full sized. The blue might be a tad bit too blue for a completely realistic full moon efffect - but it is perfect for an artistic full moon. Post processing would be needed to play with the shade of blue, but PP isn't evil either. A lot of cool things can be done in post that take hours during a render... When I first started using Bryce in the old days (1994) Bryce 1.0 we were total purists, no post - everything had to be done in the app. It was fun but I think we missed out on a lot of good things we could have done to the image that Bryce simply wasn't capable of at the time. All I'm saying is don't rule out post processing and think it is cheating or something like that. In the end - the goal is art - and you can always make improvements on the art you told the computer to create ; )
Thanks for your comments Scott. I often use post procesing in various forms, adds a bit of interest to many images. Cheers, Steve
