Great.
The photo was taken in the 50's, this is about half a century earlier,
maybe some more... ;)
Don't forget to use adaptive for those area_light.

Looking great so far, Thomas!
Will you be using area_illuminating area_lights for this?
You won't be using radiosity, though? Low-res, fading area_lights at each source
for bounced light wouldn't hurt, though it will most definitely make the render
times higher...

You probably already know this, but when area_lights and focal blur are
combined, you can reduce the area_light samples if jittering is enabled...
The final render is going to look awesome :)

Well, I am not sure about this new feature and have not yet experimented
with it...

Radiosity is on here, though. It is really needed for overall illumination
of the dark parts by a screen behind the camera.

Yes, I have been testing several sample values to get the lowest possible.

I hope so :-)

I have to do it the hard way. I have no dark room like you ;-)

Thanks. Lights are inside. I tried to modulate the halo in my eralier
version of the scene but I did not really like that. Anyway, the original
shows (almost) circular halos. This is something I shall have to experiment
with more, but for the time being I am a bit tired of this scene (almost
three month work) and want to move on.
