Hi.
It started as an exercise on how to make a book. At the end, this scene
came out.

The lighting is a bit strange. Is it possible, that the lamp shade has the
"no_shadow" applied? I would expect, that the room is darker above the
shadow of that ring. The cup and the candle holder are a bit to shiny and
reflective, I think.
But that all doesn't really matter. It's almost photorealistic! That book
cover looks really good and the table is just ... realistic.
Good work!

I agree. Alberto's paper book cover texture is perfect. I can't figure
out what those seed-like objects are in that glass tray, though.

Almond halves?
By the way, what are those other objects reflected in the lamp base?
Very nice picture! Have you tried rendering it with radiosity?

An excellent scene - and very appropriate. I am sure the book is real, where can
I get one?
Don't like the shiny floor though and the vase(?) is rather strange and detracts
from the scene.

Finally something that raytraces with a bit of realism. Good work! I
wish ALL raytraced pictures were easy to give a real look. It *should*
actually be easy! Everything in reality, looks real. Even the most clean
white ball.
And now, computer speed has reached gigahertz measurements. It's time to
rewrite raytracers to use "real" formulas. Especially for lighting.
Well, maybe a provoking comment... Never mind... I like this picture but
I'm sure it's been a battle to adjust everything for the "real look".

First I thought, they were stones of plums, but after a closer look I would
agree with peanuts. A bit too big though, or those "Jumbos".

Nice!
I especially like the peanut-bowl-thing, and the reflections in the lamp.
The table texture is perfect! Wanna share it? ;-)

Yeah, after looking closer I agree also that they must be peanuts. Almonds
are darker brown with an off-white center.

That looks good, i really like the finishes of all the objects. Of course
radiosity would be worth trying for the darker areas.

The light source of the lamp looks like a cone with double_illuminate
modifier. So you are right, there is a no_shadow in effect. But above
this cone I put another semi-transparent cone to make the lampshade cast
a shadow.

Mmhhh, may be. I'll see what can I do.

Thanks for your comments. Bellow is the table texture but sometimes, a
texture which works fine in a scene doesn't in another.
texture{
finish{phong 1 reflection .075}
pigment{wood color_map{[0 rgb <1, .5, 0>][1 rgb .9*<1, .5, 0>]}
ramp_wave scale 5 rotate <0 90 0>
warp{turbulence .0625 octaves 6 omega 3 lambda .35}
translate 50/6*z
warp{repeat 50/3*z offset <75,20,0>}
translate -50/6*z
}
}
texture{
normal{wood .2
ramp_wave scale .5 rotate <0 90 0>
warp{turbulence .0625 octaves 6 omega 3 lambda .35}
translate 50/6*z
warp{repeat 50/3*z offset <75,20,0>}
translate -50/6*z
}
pigment{wood color_map{[0 rgbf .75*<1,.5,0,1>][1 rgbf 1*<1,.5,0,1>]}
scallop_wave scale .5 rotate <0 90 0>
warp{turbulence .0625 octaves 6 omega 3 lambda .35}
translate 50/6*z
warp{repeat 50/3*z offset <75,20,0>}
translate -50/6*z
}

In mi mind their are peanuts. But I'll make them smaller.

I did some teste with radiosity but with little succes. I'll start a
final version of the scene and I'll post the results.

Very nice!
I'm still trying to guess exactly how you accomplished the "worn" look on
the book cover?
Very nice coffee too. About the only thing that jumped out at me was the
spoon. Maybe a bit more metallic looking?

What exactly do you mean? Spectral color calculations instead of RGB
based ones? Physically based BRDF functions? Physically accurate
lighting calculations (polarization, dispersion, diffraction, etc...)?
If you want "correct" results using "real" equations, you will have to
use "real" parameters and settings, and probably a new way of specifying
texture and interior...and the result would not be fast and may not
really be easier to use. And you would also have to find someone with
the knowledge and time to write it all...
As it is, POV can produce extremely realistic looking images, and with a
few additions could be improved further...there isn't any need to use
completely accurate equations everywhere or simulate every lighting
effect. That would just slow things down and get in the way of people
who just want to make "pretty pictures".

I like the smooth look. The turbulence in the wood is perfect!
The shade must be pretty thin (or translucent, as it were) because it doesn't
cast much of a shadow. That's my one nitpick.
I really hate the glare on this monitor. I put my hands up to the screen and
the reflections in the lamp just jumped out. They're pretty sweet!

Thank you.
The book cover texture is an agate normal with a little bit of phong.
