I really need a faster machine. An I7 should be able to churn this out
in less than 3.5 hours. Lighting has issues I want to fix, and the
ballerina mesh needs correcting in a few places but can't really do that
easily in Moray.

I like it. In fact I could have used the tutu for the last TC-RTC ;)
The sunbeams are good.

Yes, impressive scene indeed. Two comments though. First, imo the sunbeams
are a bit too extreme. I would prefer a little bit subtler/more transparant
atmosphere. Second, the ballerina floats/jumps in the air? This makes her a
bit artificially added to the scene. Imo it would be better if she had one
foot on the ground at least, with a clear cut shadow over the floor. Just my
two cents of course :-)

A very nice atmosphere, I like the "mood" and the colors.

Beautifully done, Tim! Excellent composition, and the media effect
really adds to the atmosphere. I can almost hear the music playing in
the background as she practices.

Seconded. I would also prefer her facing the light/window instead, to
improve the mood and eliminate distracting shadowing on the face.

Wow! Big-time! In particular the modeling of the the conservatory is
beautifully detailed and convincing. Ambitious lighting study.
At first I was disturbed by the heavy shadowing on the figure but when I
opened up the picture and saw how the entire composition works, with the
figure balancing the rich dark area on the left, I understood better the
dramatic and moody effect you are seeking.
This is an ambitious picture and so I must side with Thomas and urge you
to see if you might push it just a little farther.
The main drama of the picture is the light. And there seem to be three
separate elements at play: the light of the landscape outside, the
sunbeams coming through the window, and the interior candle lights. This
makes the whole thing quite ambitious. The candles are probably fine, it
is the relationship between the other two that the mind seeks to
reconcile. It is hard to fix the time of day, for instance, and that is
crucial to really getting the mood.
The light streaks seem to be converging to their source. I cannot tell
if this is do to the perspective of the camera?
Also, with so much streaking through the dust I would expect more of a
pattern on the floor? I think, as Thomas also mentioned, my main
problem is with the floor. Somehow there needs to be more distinctness
there to help the mind locate it.

Quite a beautiful image, a painting come-to-life. Makes we want to pull it up in
Photoshop and lighten it, just to see all the wonderful detail that's in this
scene.
Mt own two cents: The ballerina could, IMO, have a a hint more fill light;
as-is, she seems 'on the verge' of looking a bit like a cut-out, not quite
blended into the hazy atmosphere. OR (and this is just my personal opinion), she
could be repositioned to be near the more visible large window--which would
wonderfully encompass her visually--perhaps standing in front of it, with the
light streaming in on her. The reason being that the
scene as a whole doesn't look quite balanced to me (compositionally speaking);
I'm not sure what the main element is supposed to be, the room or the figure.
Personally, I think the room and its wonderful atmosphere should take
precedence--with the ballerina as more of a humanizing element than an
'equally-weighted' compositional one. As a side effect of this, it would make
the room look even more imposing and grand (since the girl would be smaller in
the frame.) Of course, all of this may have the opposite effect (though still a
good one): drawing *attention* to the smaller figure, enclosed by the cavernous
space.

Yeah, on the whole the settings are very much a 'rough draft, just to
see what it looks like' thing...am currently tweaking things. The
ballerina *is* touching the floor, it's just hard to see because the
light from the windows is so faint (the sunbeams are way
overexaggerated). Nothing much has been done to the texturing of
anything, here (except for making the crystals on the chandelier
refracting/dispersing and taking 90 of the 100.5 hours of render) and
the flames of the candles emitting media. I've fixed the pose of the
ballerina some and am now testing making her less uncanny valley
material with subsurface scattering and things.
The poser scene of the room had a whole bunch of doodads with it that I
can add (and there's some other things I can throw in, too).
