A great photo is like a work of art, it goes beyond photo realism and captures the essence of a scene, giving it a soul and a back story and often asking more questions than it answers. It invites the viewer into its reality, it gives you a memory rather than a picture.

Tenebrism... not often used these days; the extension from the paintings to the scene contents has created something much more than just photorealism - as Box says the image has 'soul'.

Really a nice work Massimo, stunning images!!! Material and Lightning are simple amazing...love it!!!!

[massimo]

Thanks once again for the very kind words guys.

[Stinkie]

They are well-deserved. I delved deeper into Thea's material system today, and I realised it'll take me quite some time to make mats like yours.

The Thea team should do a nice, long vid on advanced material making.

Wow! Massimo these are amazing. Even the raw renders are amazing! Thank you for the inspiration.
