Just for completeness. 
I’m Janine Pauke… er… I live in the uk, near Brighton… er… I’m 24 very soon (eek)… er… And in cg I like lighting very much. I hate modeling, and I always tend to skip the modeling part, and that’s why my models usually suck (ie twisted cubes) but are always well lit. Oh and I use Cinnnnemaaaa, so watch out!
Here’s my trademark:
You have no idea how hard it was for me to not post something similar when I first read the thread…
here comes the messiah of the new “lensflare affected chrome ball on marble checkerboard”.
you sure showed us you got balls by posting that image!
would offer you a picture of mine, but then mash would go all jealous on me (not because of you, but because I always refused to show them to him in the past).
Lol, you can even see Janine taking the pic in the ball’s reflection. You sick weirdos.
Feeling super self righteous and important as a prestigious new cg society member. Dont burst my bubble. 
Mash–I hope you cleaned your ball before putting your mouth all over it. Who knows where its been?
O you poor dear, men and their ball jokes prevading your home post…
Sad to admit it had me busting a gut, brought me right to their level, guess having a pair will do that.
(trying to redirect) does C4D support those bokeh effects in your rendering? BTW - Lighting is a fine specialty, subtle and challenging. I’m a bit of a CGLD myself, with all my set work. -Best.

I have to admit I literally laughed out loud when I got to your post, however this picture is a sight that’s going to haunt me and wake me up screaming at night for years to come.
