Description

What do you think? Today there is much CG real life simulation/emulation. Is this picture a photography or computer graphics? :) Strata

Spheres and an HDRI image...HDRI image based shadows give it away.

I don't think you could find something like this on the street, so I have to say it's 3D:)

Id say c4d' but thats what makes C4d interesting and compelling' the Ability to create Images that Are Somewhere between the two.......Interesting Question...? Could be a mixture of Both.

Jaggies on the ball seam. 2. Multilight reflection on the purple ball 3. A granite ball? 4. The ovreall scale of the objects relative to the ground texture. Having said the above, your point it, actually, well taken. We CAN create images that are indistinguishable from photographs today, and that is way cool! Very nice image, though.

I'm going to vote for Photo... and the story is that you've lost your marbles and then photographed it. :) Sorry... just couldn't resist that one. You do bring up a great point about the current state of 3D.
