Oooo pills… hmm I thought they were Red or Blue pills not Red AND Blue pills, how are we supposed to find out how deep the rabbit hole goes if we don’t know which pill to take?
Yes Dave, sort of, trying to simulate the light getting into the lens sort of. But it just looked like an interesting effect. I like the lighting experiments. Here’s a weird one to consider, if you make a HDRI which is an entire rainbow using this material Bryce 10 minute material project - rainbow texture - a tutorial by David Brinnen with the apex where all the rainbows meet at the pole over your head. And you have a street grey street lamp on a grey flat plane, what shadows does the HDRI produce?
These lenses experiments are beautiful. My quick sun glow/lense experiment - in fact the noise is revealing the nature of the effect.
I guess if I am going to get into making jewelry renders and stuff, I should dive back into cararra since it can do that physics collision thing for making chains and things..
