Actually, not really my first 26,108,549 photons, but I started
experimenting with them today with the latest 3.5 beta. Just when I
thought my new Athlon with 512 megs of RAM could handle anything, I find
a new way to go into swap. ;)
Might be too dark on some monitors, but you can still see the caustics.
Looks like the photon count still isn't high enough, but I think it came
out pretty well.

Cool.
I am still a photon virgin.

Try using jitter.

Here's a thought! That light patern on the floor is *Very* nice. But is it
possible to work backwards?...
instead of defining your objects and fining out what light pattern it makes...
define your light patern and find out what object it needs??

It looks really interesting, but the geometry seems a bit obscure. As
Peter said, jitter might be a good idea, what max_trace_level did you use
BTW?

Looking for that special positron? (Okay I'll shut up)

Oh yeah... I may not do much with this render, but it could come in
useful later.

I think that would be fairly difficult. Anyway, half the fun is seeing
what pattern it'll make. :)

Thanks. It wasn't supposed to show off the torus object really, just
the caustics. Max trace was 50 I believe.

but half the fun could be seeing what object it makes.
