I posted my caustics render a little too soon. I added atmosphere along with the caustics in this new scene of the dolphin. God, I really love that Final Fantasy movie. I enjoyed it a lot more than the Phantom Menace or Attack of the Clone. I guess it's the whole concept that every living thing has a gaia, a simple life form like a plant to complex form like an entire planet. There is an underlying message that says that every one and every thing has a spirit. Marina

.....in addition to the mystical belief that you will live another more beautiful life than you are living now

Thank you for adding that! mep

WOW, great depth in your image. I'd love to see a tut on this image. there's so much new stuff to explore in P5 I hardly know where to start (and I've been working with it for over a month). excelent work.

wdupre, try checking caustics' tutorials for Bryce. there are several around. Actually, go to Poser's Material Room and put a caustic pic on Transparency of the light you're using in the scene.

Really great effect. I was wondering what P5 could add to underwater scenes. Anyone have any luck with gels? If you add gels in the materials room, does it creat a new light or add them to existing scene lights?

Well, I was wrong about using gels on Transparency channel. Mixed that with Bryce, for a moment there. I added gels to the existing lights. On the colour channel. the effect is even more noticeable if you apply the gel to the volume channel of Atmosphere, as you can see on the picture.
