Special effects??
Need some special effects? Look at this picture...
My guess is they're caused by the venetian blinds.

Re: Special effects??
It looks almost like the lens is inside a light source, nice kitchen layout m8

Re: Special effects??
Just had another look at the larger image, where is the light source that is reflecting off the upper corner cabinet? Behind and left of the lens? What type of source is it?

Re: Special effects??
Couldn't get any improvement to your own image even after changing the lighting and trying renders of other rooms, but i did get this :-

when i stopped using the 1.6 render plugin and used the camera icon on the toolbar. Still none the wiser as to what is causing it though, sorry.

Re: Special effects??
Just made another render with v1.6 and it is ok,i did however change it from path to default, could there be a conflict using path with light sources?

Re: Special effects??
Something i have just noticed is that in bdfd's copy and mine the large cabinet appears to have moved, as is seen in Hans's original image

Re: Special effects??
Unless some other people here, I'm not really into making nice renders. We have Cecilia for that. All (almost) other attempts pale before her images.

So, if I make a render, it's more out of curiosity, or to test something. I was surprised to see the special effects in my image, that's why I decided to share it. I'm not the investigative type, and I don't really care what caused this effect.

Play with the image as much as you like.

It's the "Fast" option that creates this effect.
Fast is a very nice setting for checking, but it can render some rather surrealistic patterns

Re: Special effects??
Thanks Cecilia,

It's good to know what caused this. I was somewhat surprised that such a large image using Path rendered in 3 hours. So these special effects are the trade-off.

For me it's not a problem, but it's clear this limits the usefulness of the Fast setting.
