Description
This is yet another image I recently made while beta testing the version currently under development.
This particular scene was Radiosity rendered in 56 minutes, using the new LightDome (but not with HDR lighting, just a stock 32 bit environment image that comes with Strata) along with the default Global Light (for highlights) in an attempt for realism... the new LightDome added much of the needed ambient light for this scene with little set-up and further experimentation.
The orange was from the Strata shape library, but its' stems needed some tweaking, so I used the SDS modeler to clean it up (reshape it at the polygon level) in the main shape file, first.

This is a very kewl image/still life. Really like those highlights to bring out the orange's skin more. Glad to see that Strata is still in the game. Take care and happy renderings ;0)
Your renders were fantastic before. It looks like strata has upped the stakes a bit with their rendering engine. These look really really good. Nice work. I'm glad they ok'd your sharing them.
Looks like a photo, fabulous work Howie!
