Fantastic.  Might the refraction be causing the bright/dim midpoints of the
candles?  It just looks like a gradient with slight turbulence though.

Blob artifacts I think. I'll try sturm solver next time.

Looks great! One thing I noted.. In each candle there appears to be a crack
in the wax. Now they could be there on purpose, or they could be something
unwanted. Thought I'd point them out to you. And as Tony requested, any
chance of seeing the source on this wonderful scene? :{)

Incredible !!!.
It's always a pleasure to see your work, but this one is really fantastic.
Everything is perfect, the flames, the wax, the gold, the table...
Will you share the code?. I would like to learn how you did it.
(I'm on my knees right now ;-)

Amazing!  Good realism.  That's some odd stemware though, looks like it
should be made of glass or else thicker and wider.

I guess they could be due to the candle behind the camera?

Seems you might have thought I meant the streams of blobs.  Was talking
about what the others have brought up too.

Nope. I completely understood you.
Without rad. and with sturm I cannot notice those artifacts anymore.

Amazing!  I love the candles, and the candle holder texture is marvelous.  The
table's not bad either.  Ok... I like everything except the glass...  it looks a
little rough.
