Object I made with creative influence from my wife, ultimately for use in  
a park night snow/ice/fog snow macro test scene. I made the lamp post  
short just to fit in a smaller image.

Suggestions welcome.

I was just about to say something about that ;-)

How are you going to make the post longer? I think it has a good 
height-to-girth ratio as it is, so just extruding it more along the y 
axis might make the post appear too slim and fragile for the lamps. You 
could take it as-is and place it on some kind of pedestal though.

All that requires is changing a parameter of the macro. ;)

Hmm...that is a good idea, and fits well with the base of the post, as  
alone the base would be too small to afford any sort of stability.
