excellent render above. now that poser has both hdri and GI, it's easier to do professional-looking renders in poser, but it can't match the speed and ease of use of carrara IMVHO. I personally don't like bryce because the renders I've seen always have harsh directional lighting. I assume this is due to user ignorance, and that bryce is actually capable of excellent renders, but apparently it's not easy for default users to do professional-looking renders in bryce.
