IMO, it ruins the blur on the tile wall and causes the glass to look
cut/pasted in.
I think the image might have benefited by having some of the yellow
reduced (easily accomplished in POV), but there are other, more on-topic
places to discuss and demonstrate second party methods of doing that.

I really haven't followed this newsgroup for long so I have to ask what
exactly is this lighting macro of yours?

Simple but yet it makes envious of your skills. You are the master of
photorealism. I really don't see the minor 'flaws' the others have
mentioned.

Awesome! I especially like the photons in the first image.

What's the render time?

No one else said it, but.... WOW!
I'm going to make one of these my desktop just so people inquiry as to why I
have a *photograph* of a glass of water as my background.

Woah... wait a second...
you posted two images. Originally, when I first looked at them, I was
comparing the first to the second, believing the second was a photo that you
had based the first one off of.
Now I realize the second was also a POV-Ray render.
Good job =)

Jaime's light macros can be found here:

It helps you set up lights in POV that interacts realistically.

Yes, I agree on this. And, indeed, it can be achieved with POV to some
extent, playing with assumed_gamma and light intensities. Anyhow, it's a
matter of taste, and I'm starting to like the slighty dull contrast
obtained when using assumed_gamma 1.0.

I think aprox. 20 min for the first and 38 for the second, on a 1.2Ghz
AMD, using spacing .02 for photons.
