Subject: Bounced water light?

Okay, here's a good one. I haven't tried it yet, I'm just throwing this question out to see if anyone has done it. When sunlight(or any light source) bounces off of water, the result is that ripply water reflection you see on buildings and such. Is there a way to attain such effect with RD? Is it capible of that kind of lighting?

Ray Dream doesn't do that kind of light automatically, but you can fake it! The most common way is create a texture with light and dark spots in the pattern you want and then use a strategically placed spot light with the texture as a gell.
