Actually I did use radiosity, but along with an area light

That's a very nice looking picture! Is that supposed to be a sugar bowl in the
middle? It -- unlike the excellent teapot -- looks too solid; I'm not sure where
the lid stops and the bowl starts.
BTW, where is the spoon? Or should there be one? Since this was originally for
the "Spirit of Asia" round, just ignore my cultural ignorance if it turns out
that isn't supposed to be a sugar bowl and no spoon is needed :)

You got me! It is a spoonless ( or tongless if lumps ) sugar bowl.
MOre detail needed there too. :)

I considered that, but IMHO no. Take a look at the highlight on the unpeeled
orange on the right - the highlight on the cups should be in roughly the same
place. Also, and this is fairly subjective, there are other aspects to the
finish on the teapot that seem to be missing from the cups. The teapot has some
reflectivity and is generally glossier.
I'd double-check your code - it looks like the finish has been dropped from the
cups....

If you look very closely at the white part of the cups, I do believe you can
see the hightlights there.
Or maybe I'm just seeing things.

I think yours is the best explanation, else it is really a puzzle. The pigment
and finish are wrappered under the same texture name and applied to all three
objects. I also switched the locations of one of the cups and one of the
oranges and sure enough, the orange shows a highlight where the cup wouldn't and
the cup still won't show a highlight except the thread along the very top. Hope
soon to post a new version including most of the suggestions posted here. Will
be my first time with a photon map. Whoohoo!
