True, I didn't take the time to match the sky with
the virutal sun placement. The clouds are a
photograph and the sun would actually be
coming from behind the camera, not to
the left in front, but I wanted to see the caustics.
I'm just learning caustics, maybe I should have
shot fewer photons? Still, I like the realism in
the paperweights, maybe I'll spend some
time and finish a more complete and acturate
environment.
