Very impressive. I have seen tangerines that would pop out of the skin like
that. I will have to go back and find your IRTC entry to learn how you
created the oranges.

Good idea, especially since traditional still life with sliced open lemons or the
like often seem to emphasize the transparency. The texture had a slight
transparency as it stands now, .15 I think. But it would be interesting to use
more and with scattering media. Without a deadline looming, render times are no
obstacle.

Sharp observation Tom. I don't really know the answer, the identical texture
including finish is applied to each

Yes the peels do need more work. Probably there sould be thre pieces and the
edges much more ragged. I just can't think how to do it at the moment. Right
now. one piece is an intersection with some blobs, the other a difference with
the same set of blobs. Maybe I can get more blobs with a greater range of scale
involved.

Never even thought if that one! Have never used photons. Mmm scary. Will look
into it.

Yes I was using as a general reference some clementines and also some
tangerines which both tend to be dark and reddish. I was so excited with how
the color worked together with the texture that I allowed this stretching of
reality to creep in. I will play with the color further. Same with the
irregularity. I guess I wanted it to be noticable and exaggerated it some.
Thanks for your kind remarks, Jaime.

Nicely set out, the orange peel looks brown to me and the segments of
orange have a solid/stale look to them.
The bread sticks in the jar are excelent.

Thanks Andy, I will play with the color some more. Since the oranges are teh
focus of attention I guess it would pay to get them right

Yes the actual examples I had at hand were clementines and the skin seems to be
attached to them quite loosely. The technique I used is a variation on the
technique I used in my entry for the "Worship" round.

I think maybe you just can't see the highlight because of the viewing angle.

Agreed.

bread sticks? I assumed they were cinnamon.
