Hi all,

    I just wanted to post this image to demonstrate to those of you that don't already
know that it is possible to get beautifully smooth DOF by cranking the blur_samples up
*much* higher than the figure of 45 as used in the demonstration file focalb1.pov. I'd
always assumed that this figure was as high as was neccessary, and the grainy blurring
was
all that could be expected, but in this simple image I have attatched, the DOF is very
smooth. I used blur_samples 450 ( which may be overkill ) for this pic.
    I hope it pleasantly surprises some of you, as it did me.

all the best,

--
