Stunning image. Though I am not very proficient in C8 I know many people that are and make some wonderful renders in it. I myself made 1 that I was actually really happy with as far as realism goes but it was nothing compared to this!

I just love what you do in Carrara! (Well, I just love your images in general, but your use of Carrara makes me feel all warm and fuzzy, because I love Carrara and like seeing it used by capable creative artists.) Thank you!
