Sorry, Ang... I've missed your lovely typeface, too. :) yep... SylvieB92, that's her... sorry for missing that the first time. Thanks Alvin for anyone who's interested in the lighting... I've used 1 square parallel light (infinite light?... can't remember which bryce calls it) with a procedural gel on it, and two regular spots for fill light. Worked out pretty good.. A tree is actually between the light with the grid gel on it and the subject, but it simulates fairly well a window with a tree casting shadows through it from the outside. I'd like to see this rendered with soft shadows... but I just don't have the computer or patience for that... This took 7 hours to render as it is. Thanks, everyone, for your comments. :)
