This is an image I was creating for my art foundations class.  It started
out as a sketch for a small series... so I decided I would do a 3d render
of it as well.  This is how it came out.  There are a few flaws I noticed,
but I am to lazy to just fix one or two.  Plus, doesn't matter as long as
noone else notices ^.^

Kinda simple and surrealistic.  Any hints, comments, advice?

I would try pulling your camera's location backwards, and then decreasing the
'angle' parameter. That'll keep the coffee mug looking a little more regular
--- right now it's outside the circle of acceptable distortion. Unless, of
course, you like it that way and did it on purpose. In which case I'll shaddup.

You're totally right.  I was getting irritated at how much the mug was
distorted, but I had no idea how to fix it.  I may even drop the camera a bit
in the next render... as well as pull it back.

Thanks!
