Yes, real apples.  Students sometimes had to redo the project with fresh 
apples when their initial pair of apples grew soggy.  At least one 
sorority girl complained that I was wasting food.

I'd start with the right one because it has that kinda sour look to it. I'm
quite certain that the left one is the sweet one and that I'd eat second so
that I wouldn't end up with the kinda sour taste :)

Very nice looking apples (perhaps they could benefit from my blurred
reflection material, wink, wink ;) )

Are the apple shapes somewhat randomly generated or are they explicitly
created?

Not at all. Probably the only advantage I have is that I have been a big fan
of your work since a long time ago.

Anyway, what's my prize? :-)

Bye Jaime, and keep up that fantastic work.

These look great. I recently tried to use your apple texture on one of my
pictures, but couldn't get it to work without reset_children. I saw afterwards
in the docs one could do the same thing with pigment_pattern but that hadn't
occurred to me at the time.

I also like the way your lighting macros and the focal blur set these off so
well.

  Yes, this is the trick. I'm also adding some other changes, but these are 
waiting for the next RC.

  Oh, yes, seems I'm getting addicted to focal_blur...

Bah.  By the  time they got to starving families on another continent, 
they'd be rotten anyway.  Eating food just because not eating it is 
"wasting" it is stupid IMO.

You'll have to stop for a few years so the rest of us can catch up!  :)
