Oh, man, those advanced tree settings are brutal. I'm proud to have gotten as
far as I
did. If someone wants to write a tutorial for the advanced tree settings *in
English* I'd
be delighted.

It's based on a real doorknob, which does look that bad. It doesn't even look
like
metal, the real one

True. It's actually a photo of me on a foggy day in Venice (no joke). I chose a
low-
contrast photo, because I didn't want the content of the photo to be a major
focal
point. But the reflection of a window, which is off-camera to the left, blows
the whole
thing away. Alas.

That's a heat register. Our house is about 50 years old, and it has these nifty
neo-
deco registers. Kind of an inside joke of sorts, since it's not a shape anyone
would
recognize.

I wonder if that's a function of the fact that everything off camera is really
simple.
There's actually a doorway behind the camera, which was meant to give a little
modulation to the sky light and reflections, but not much else. So there's not
a lot of
detail for the lighting to respond to.

Thanks... it's interesting to see how others view the picture. To me, the
reflection in
the picture on the left and the mysterious white mass outside the window are
the
main glitches. Oh, and the gaps in the grout. I don't know what the deal is
with those.
I used the highest quality anti-aliasing. Sigh.
