Flood Light night shot - Maxwell
-
Nice image. I really like it
Instead of a flash you could fake the lights of a car arriving home.
That is the feeling I get when I see the image.
I almost expect to see the front of a car apearing from the right -
great work as always richard very polished

Need to start using that fur plug for the grass though!

It feels like a movie scene just before the SWAT team fires tear gas through the window. Skillful as always, but dramatically sinister.

Have to agree with Roger...
I know you're very talented, Richard, but this just doesn't appeal to me... -
Very nice.

I like calm, inviting - the need to be almost daylight descriptive of the material finish (as demanded) sort of overdoes it, I even actually prefer a loss af materials on a "don't know what the colours are" outcome, leaves to imagination!

Hey ALL!
Found cool trick when setting this scene, to set a flash at the camera I used SU's create camera feature then added an emitter to the camera and deleted the camera geometry. the result is a flash! I then copied this group around for the other emitters and could see from their cameras where the light would be directed! If you set that cameras FOV to 1 you almost have an exact view of what any foreground objects shadow cast will be as created by that light!
Wow Richard if this works as you say, it's a great trick.

Yes mate works perfectly, there is a bit of buggering around to get the FOV 1 thing working though!
I'm now going try and set up a test so I can workout the light falloff (I think it's called - the cone effect of the light) created by my side blinker things around my emitter panels, then I can just use the scale tool to effect this aspect. Using the camera guides as demonstrating the bounds of the effect so this camera / emitter setup will allow easy location / alignment and near perfect visual assessment of the results. Without realtime feedback of lighting this is currently SO hit and miss and time consumptive!

Like the render but a little sinister!
