Description
Well, I keep coming back to this, hopefully getting better. But I really like HDRI renders so I decided to do some more =P... The second one down uses agent smith's metal tut. The others are experiments in the DTE, the base textures for some are from a maxon subsite. I got the look in the glass materials by using two spheres, the top one being a glass material of that color and the inner being a metalic /fuzzy material. These scenes were rendered in 1-2.5 hours at effect aa, depending on how many lights I used. In the images I placed omni/spot lights in key areas to creat 'hotspots' on the image. These, when used with true ambiance, produce a very realistic lighting effect. The main light is bounced off the image and back onto the spheres / ground plane. in the kitchen scene I used square spotlights on the window area with extremely high brightness to simulate an over exposed look.
The DOF was done in photoshop using tweaked distance renders.

Your images are minituts in themselves. Thanx for posting.
very cool. I have just returned from a 3 week trip and your image was a wonderful homecoming present! I like the last version the best. It seems that hdr maps with distinct square walls produce the best reflective effects. For example this animation i did a while ago...http://www.renderring.com/hdri/bloblinks.html
Great stuff. It's great having someone explain how they accomplish what they are able to do. Your "experiments" are a pleasure--both to look and and to learn something from! Bravo!
Truely awesome render and very nice and realistic dof. One of the best bryce renders I have seen.
not bad. lots of spheres!!
hooooo I can see that wood varnished sphere from "minority report" but can't read the name on it!!!!!!!!!!!! ( that's a compliment)
Very interesting variations!!!
Looks so cool, I love the crystal clear renders.
I love it! the realism is stunning!
realism is achieved to my eyes 110%.. :)
I love this set of images... Astounding what one can do, if you're Ornlu of course...!
