Hi Folks,

I used photons to make mirror ball reflections, but unfortunately,
increasing the number of facets on the mirror ball didn't make more
reflected light spots, it just blurred them too much. To make this scene
look good would require several more spot lights (probably about a hundred
or so). Or maybe increasing the photon count would help - either way means
significantly increased rendering time.
