A loft in Manhattan

Member : lequenne

Image description
Illuminated - illumination - light - reflection - photo ..... I wanted here to create an as photorealistic atmosphere as i could. The ground and the reflect of Empire State Building looks fine. The overexposure under the window, is quite fine too. The reflect on the matylin portrait could be improved again .... but no time for that.

Description of how this image was created
Architecture, and realistic rendering is actually my prefered subject on 3D. I ve had several other pictures like this one. I ll try to upgrafe this one with the night version of it.

1.   31-12-2009 Not a big fan of the color scheme 2.   30-12-2009 The lighting coming from the window is higher than what we expect from what is seen outside. It looks a bit weird. However, the floor is excellent. In fact, split the image in two, and what is below the line seems perfectly realistic to me (almost too clean, but still possible). But there are too many missing shadows above that line (curtains, etc) to claim the same about the upper half. Funny to say that while we can see on the ceiling the shadow of an object that is not even there. Interesting twist! - DrNo 3.   26-12-2009 Not my style of room but very good, never the less. [SMcA] 4.   22-12-2009 Yeah... architectural rendering is very attractive to me too.. For more photorealism, you should overexpose the exterior too: it looks too dim for the bright lighting on the interior. 5.   18-12-2009 The floor is the best part of this image, the texture looks very good. I am not keen on the view from the window looks just like an image mapped onto a box (I know that's what it is but it shouldn't look like it). The modelling is OK but I think the textures let the scene down. 6.   17-12-2009 Maybe more a scene for Florida or California? I find the floor to be over-imposing (too large) The small table seems to be flying.
