Hello,

I would like to do a moonlight picture (a cat walking above a table, a moon is shining through the window).

Attached two samples. One use a IBL based approach. I get a fine moon but moon doesn't reflect very well on the water surface . The other one is a underexposed picture. The light looks pretty good but the moon lacks 'moonish' details.



What would be the "right" way to set up such a moonlight scene?

Kind regards

Render also an alpha and composite the "real" moon image in post.
