The image looks stunning, but the exaggerated focal blur gives the impression
that we are looking at a miniature building, maybe 30cm high... if anything,
only the ivy in the extreme foreground (right-hand side) should be blurred.
Of course, that wasn't the point of your render, and I agree, being able to
tweak the light level in a quick apres-AO pass is very powerful. Great stuff!
