How should I feel then, having been immersed in POV for 10 years now? :)

Very nice Tim, but why the first drop is red?

I thought I had that covered with "different style". :-P
I'm not sure, but the way I say it, people are different, have different
talents, and different ways how to do things. Putting the marker "better" or
"worse" on things often isn't really what's asked for.

Tim

The one thing my brother asked as well. If you'd take a closer look, you'd
see that there's a heart in the drop. Add the title "Down the Drain" and
you've got yourself something to interpret. :-)

There's a heart inside of it, going along with his "Down the Drain"
theme. I didn't see it right away, either; maybe you should make it larger?

I am pondering about that as well. Trouble is, when I make it larger, the
relationship drop to faucet doesn't work really well anymore. It's not final
anyway, as I'm also thinking about making the drop still attached to the
faucet and just about to drop off.
I originally thought the red would attract the eyes, but I can see that the
resolution at which I posted does throw it off a little. Maybe I should also
find a way to attenuate the border a bit, that might help as well.
Regards,
Tim

Your drop is much better than my drops in my last image. Mine are just
boring old water drops... :/
Nice idea Tim, following this enthusiastically. :o)

On second thought, I like the current size. It will be much better, of
course, at a higher resolution.
Anyway, if you do decide to increase the size of something, I'd go with
making the glow around the drop stronger / larger, rather than changing
the size of the drop itself.
Of course, it's not my image to begin with, so take this with a grain of
salt :)

You can have mine! The size is probably off, so you should scale it at the
end.
blob{threshold .5
sphere{0,2,1 scale .02*<1,1.25,1>}
sphere{0,2,1 scale .01*<1,2,1> translate <0,.03,0>}
sphere{0,2,1 scale .01*<1,1.5,1> translate <0,.01,0>}
hollow
pigment{rgbt <1,1,1,.99>}
interior{ior 1.14}
finish{
specular 2 roughness .001
reflection{0,1 fresnel}
}
//Scale and move to proper position here!
scale 1
}

Hm... Now I'll become paranoid. ;-)

That's something that is easily overdone, and all of a sudden you get a huge
red blob in your image. If I increase the size, I also have to make the
gradient smoother, so as not to make the red dot a red GIANT. But I'll see
how it'll turn out. I've been told to try for a background with tiles, and I
have to see how that works out.

I always do. I like to hear opinions and ideas, as they often lead to new
ideas or help improve the image. But as much as feedback is always
appreciated, the final choice is always mine. And I guess everyone knows
that and does it that way himself. :-P

Tim
