Hola,
After some input I've reworked the lamp glass .... I like it much better.
I used Runes' patina macro for the brass lamp.
The table is different and the kinetic toy is gone.
Is it me or does focal blur do a better job than AA command line options?
Ciao Jim

What AA options do you use? +AM2 +A0.3 seems to work well, +A0.1 if I want
higher quality. I usually use +AM1 +A0.3 for quick renders of small width
and height.
the table looks pretty good. the edges of the wood could use a little bevel
or roundness to them to catch a light highlight. the lamp needs a power cord
:) the last nitpick is that the metal connecting the peices of glass seem a
little too thick.
nice work, the lamp looks realistic.

I used +AM2 +A0.1 -J0.0 for the AA options ....
aperture 0.35
blur_samples 200
variance 1/1000
confidence 0.99
for the focal blur (pointed at midpoint of the lamp) ...

good feedback ..... haha I'd already done a difference with the edges of
the table and a cylinder that was
a 3rd the thickness of the tabletop (much better!), and the powercord ....
was checking out another thread related to
stringing cables maybe that'll help. I hadn't really noticed the thickness
with the connector issue .... thanks

uhm, you do know that anti-aliasing is turned off when focal blur is used,
right?

Yep I do .... I was comparing the two. When I wanted to use command line AA
I just commented out the focal blur keywords
