Dangit TJohn, your bird got out again. lol I often render in the dark too, probably cuz my grandmother would shake her finger at me and say "money dont grow on trees" when I would leave one on when it wasnt needed. I imagine it's better for they eyes with some lights on too. Thanks to everyone for the comments as well. One more question because I'm still curious about my monitor. This render is full daylight minus some volumetrics. Does it appear bright enough? Blue
