Living room

The outside backdrop is nicely soft focus to give depth of field and the sunlight hitting the window behind the blind is excellent. Huw Edwards and the BBC News service in general would benefit from being switched off so just a blank screen would do it!

Thanks, I had not thought of that.

Looks good!

Maybe some artwork on the walls next time?

What renderer are you using?

Hi Mike, I assume the tv image is an image turned into a light emitter. Cant you simply lower the value of the emitter? I am curious

Actually I would say that TV is quite real for my experience in that scene.
In terms of lightning, if you take a photo in dimmed space you would take ISO up and get some overexposed TV screen and light on the ceiling.

Thanks folks, I have faffed with the image lighting value but it's a bit hit and miss. Still using Twilight v2.

Mike Amos :

         A nice simple design.  I like it.  As for the TV lighting.....you could do "post editing" for that.  I use PhotoShop Elements.  (No offense) As for the lighting, I'd probably use one or two lamps on the end tables. That would give the room that soft glow.  Otherwise,  nice

work !!!! Keep it coming.

Thanks mate.

Good Mike i'd turn off that interior light, it'd make the windows and TV pop and introduce more contrast.

Mike Amos

Thanks mate, when I am feeling better I'll give it a go.
