Very nice! I like the scene and the atmosphere..But here is a question please.. Why VUE infinite or espirit gives such noise or distortion on the image! I mean can you see the accomplished parts? I always wondered why and no one gave me the right answer. Anyways, Thank you for sharing your art and have a nice day/holiday JOE

@ nattarious I think this was rendered in preview quality. And noise is easily washed away with different lighting set ups.

I actually like the noise, it adds to the depth, but that is me. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for your comments. This image was rendered in user settings for depth of field with "advanced effects quality set at 50%. Interestingly enough, the same image rendered in final has far less noise. Thanks for the heads-up. Learn something new every day.

@Nattarious: As i understand it, "noise" or "grain" in Vue is usually the result of the indirect light being more detailed than the sampling size the render engine is set for. So, the engine throws rays into the scene ("ray tracing"), but not enough of them or they are not close together enough, and they miss important things. So, many small pieces of the scene don't get rendered (or are averaged together) and those show as "noise". There are several adjustments in Vue to deal with this and there should be no scenes where such "grain" cannot be fixed successfully, with enough understanding of rendering, application of the right controls and enough render time. At least, i've never been unable to deal with "grain" in Vue Infinite. Of course that doesn't make it easy to do or to learn - just that Vue is not the problem, the user is. To make it even tougher, the fix depends on the type of render, atmosphere, material, lighting conditions and the type of lighting, making advice hard to give. Apologies for turning your comments area into a lecture, evensteven :o)
