Re: Lighting a room – is it cheating?
Hi Cec, missed these wonderful images while on holiday. Beautiful with great detail - and the illustrations of how you use lights are very useful, really a reference guide in how to get good renderings.
..Oslo, Norway, a fictional variation of a city I used to live in for twenty years...
Your view up "Universitetsgaten" could pass for the real thing. Level of detail is impressive. Your mountain bunker reminds me of a trip in the densely forested hills surrounding Oslo. Through the trees, up on a steep hillside, we caught a glimpse of something that looked man-made - a gate in the rock with no apparent access road. Later I checked out satellite imagery. But zooming in, there were always thin clouds covering just that spot. Probably nothing mysterious, but it always struck me as something for fiction: that it would be possible to hide a large secret installation in this millennium - even near a capital city.

Again - please keep posting about the story - I shall be looking forward to exploring the final product.
