Bobby, I think I've already got most of the ones around - I've certainly got a huge list of them.

I was just intrigued by the thought of using images that aren't scenic, as hdr's.

I believe Agent Smith (our Kirk) did a few experiments into this, but I guess I just wasn't enough up to speed with B6 at the time to follow much of what he was saying, anyway I think he only used 1 non scenic hdr image and that was black and white. 

Doesn't have quite the same appeal to the child in me, as all these colours do.

I'm now experimenting with red and green hdr's, and sometimes adjusting the sunlight, with or without, direction, colour, etc

Fascinating....

I've also tested out changing the amount and position of the red and the green and the strength of the colour, the strength of colour it seems doesn't make a lot of difference, since you can adjust that in Bryce's IBL via Intensity and HDRI Effect - or you can adjust it in HDRShop  via Gamma Curve.

Measure your mind's height
by the shade it casts.
