Greetings,
This is a result of pondering GrimDude's post Megapov Mustang and the
question of getting a realistic sun. There are probably any number of
ways to do it. This is one solution that works OK for me (though I
really have not worked alot with it). I tried using the origional colors
in the mustang pic. However, that was not very sucessful and the mood is
entirely different. Anyway, here they are, for those interested. First
one is with a sundisc with a softened edge. Second is with a simple
flare. Third is with clouds (again, a very different feeling from the
basis image).
Oh, yes: renders were done in Megapov.

Like wow. Awesome. I think the cloud base in the last one needs more height,
but otherwise, SOURCE US BUDDY!

The large sky glow goes perfectly with the clouds, hence hazy air feeling to it,
whereas the second cloudless image seems to lack the haze to produce such a sky
light. So the first one looks okay for a clear sky.
Well done.

This is looking quite good, especially the way that the atmosphere
interacts with the sun, but the way the sun meets the water doesn't
look right, it looks a bit like a giant biscuit being dunked into
a cup of tea. The sea seems to go behind the sun.

It most likely does... This is something I ran into when I was messing around
with just this sort of thing... take a look at my final result:

Steve,
Mmm yes. It's there; the tea biscuit effect. I was concentrating on the
flare and such, and neglected to think about that. You've got sharp eyes
btw. Well, I suppose one could solve the problem by using a _very_ large
sun-distance to camera-height-above-surface ratio, a finite polygon
plane or a very large (planetary) sphere for the surface etc.
Anyway, thanks for pointing that out. I might not have noticed and built
a scene around it!

Greetings,
For those interested, I cleaned up the code a bit and put it in p.b.sf
under
"sun excercise".
