So, yesterday night I've cooked a new abstract
image. It took 2 hours just to complete a 240x180
Version (which is the small picture I'm posting), and
I've scaled it to 640x480 for better viewing.

What I'm asking for is what I could improve,
colorwise, reflection-wise, just about anything.

The main idea was just some reflecting blob
with focal-blur, add some nice colors with smooth
blending in between...

Before attempting a one or two day trace, I wanted
to at least have a good direction to go for... :-)

So, comments and criticism and suggestions are welcome!

This looks good so far.  But, dare I say it?  I think it
might look even better without the focal blur.  Or, set it
so that only the objects in the background are blurred
and not those in the foreground.

Are you using variable reflection?  I can't tell because the image
is so small.

Yeah, it does use variable reflection.
And perhaps you're right about the focal-blur
thing, I'll play around with the depth a little.

Thanks for the comment!
