#1127

Wow, beautiful job on the grapes :)!

#1128

Awesome Scene this was! Too bad I donā€™t have the time to do something more dramatic and moody.

#1129

Looks like a Macro Shot, Nicely done :applause:

#1130

thanks for attention.

#1131

The green a wee bite saturated but I like the look of it.

B&W

#1132

nah, Iā€™d say skip the volumetrics, edges still too cleanā€¦
your light on the ground would bounce and hit right the right wall, donā€™t get a sense of it.

texture feels flat.

Value study too gray, adjust values by 2 steps

tree in middle of shot not getting illumination from either window??? or it is backlit driving it into silhouette which I donā€™t think is right because illumination should be also be from left window as well.

#1133

You have no experience in Photography,have you?

#1134

pls post lighting breakdown :slight_smile: it can be very helpful for giving feedback

#1135

Hey Iā€™m just saying, you can take that how ever you want, values were a rough call, still somethings felt off again textures, and illumination doesnā€™t seem to make sense but hey since your a photographer and you seem to know so much about it go out find an abandoned hallway or industrial complex, snap a couple of photos and replicate it and then you can talk about green your saturation isā€¦

Hi Guys, bedroom work in progress image, some textures need to be done and i have rendered intermediate quality so the image is a bit noisy , suggestions are welcome.

Why you mad.

The tree is not receiving any illumination because it is directly in front of the window, also because it being back lit by the sun light coming trough the front window and there is no fill light to lighten up the shadows.

The light is not bouncing back from the ground because I am using 1 bounce for final gather.

everything is subjective and the results i have got in the render are deliberate and planned.

I would have taken your criticism seriously if it did not sound so off handed and condescending.

Will post a break down soon

#1138

pls keep calm. We are talking about lighting and rendering and we all want to learn more :slight_smile:

#1139

comments and suggestions are welcome

Not a photographer by any stretch, still building skill on photography.

Assuming youā€™re looking for feedback:

[ul]
[li]Seems like some light from the left window would cast through the foliage around the post making the leaves a bit more translucent.
[/li][li]Is there light (flash?) coming from behind the audience (viewer)? Seems like the areas blocking the light could be darker.[/ul]
[/li]
Cheers,
