Description
I arrived at a more realistic diamond material over my previous image. Thing is, realism sure adds render time. 9.5 hours! My record longest render. My animations don't even take anywhere near that long. All those traced rays reflecting and refracting inside.
I also discovered the index of refraction setting. Made the refraction look much better, using the number for diamond, or thereabouts. I did loose the blue color, unfortunately, but oh well. I can fix that later, when I am once again ready to wait all evening and half the night for a single image.

This picture reminds me of a scripture I hold dear to my heart and has personal meaning. "I am dark, but lovely...". Song of Solomon 1:5 Your picture is beautiful, my Beloved. Thank you.
