Hello everyone,

Haven't been around or on POV for a while with RL, but have made some time
recently to poke around again, mainly with my HDR lightdome system.  I usually
use megaPOV for certain features (HDR), but decided to try the latest 3.7 RC3
out with it and was rather impressed.  Render time was a lot faster.
Additionally I was rather impressed with the focal blur implementation, was a
lot faster with far better quality than I was getting with the megaPOV version.

I'd say the lighting is very believable ;)

Glad to hear that ;-)

Nice windows btw; is that CSG?

Thanks.  Actually the lighting is from my HDR based lightdome macro that I have
been working on (for years...).  I just got back to fiddling with it again,
along with some new HDR light probes.  Been usually using it in megaPOV for the
HDR support, but thought I'd see how it fares in the 3.7 releases (very pleased
with the performance and results, good work to all those involved in developing
it).

They are just a mesh object that I had inadvertently downloaded so I thought I'd
try them out in a test scene.  The only real item I can take credit for in the
scene is the lighting, and even that is based off HDR maps by others.  The wall
and ground textures are ones I got from Arroway that I've been using on occasion
(they come with diffuse, bump and specular maps however that I do combine into a
textured heightfield object).
