I like your scene! How did you get the halo's at the candle flames?

Hello everybody, I'm rehearsing with the changes I have recommended, I attach another image awaiting developments. Here, too, perhaps there is something to improve, but I think this floor is better already.
The halo I got it by activating the radial in the darkroom, of course I gave it a light emitting material to the flame. In previous messages you will find the links to a scene of another user, you can take the idea from that.
I can not change the height of the horizon, just so I can load the entire scene, try it yourself. For sure my map is not the best.

This looks really good. The stone column looks a bit out of place but not bad. I would like to see the background image in focus since there is no visible dof in the rest of the image. I think that the ocean background in focus would add to the image.

hello, unfortunately I can not find a better image for the background, you know where I can find something? This is a hdri but I recognize that it is of low quality. Meanwhile, place another image and soon share the stage so you too can do the tests.

Really nice render!

Perhaps u can use only the hdri for the lightning part and use a similair high quality picture in the Background channel. or render it with the background as alpha and add a background in postpro.

You have well said and it was my idea but I do not find the high quality of this jpeg hdri and post production are not good and I'm afraid of making mistakes with the reflections on the glass.

Patricks explains how to use them

Marco I had a look at your scene (thanks for sharing), you should use a low dinamic range picture in high resolution for the background (for example a jpeg) and not the HDR (in low resolution) like you did.

Hello, I saw those pages and that site also, I did the test again, but I do not think that the result is very different. I do not understand perchè.Se you want to do some testing I'm glad.
