Randy, ......now that's beautiful. The diamonds are looking very good.

can I get a little extra info on settings ....... ? :) emitter/dielectric...
I'm gonna take a guess that your using an colored mxi ? ...maybe?


Nice work. :D :D


EDIT: Max, ...I think it does fly .....just needs corrected.
This isn't entirely accurate due to 2 extra layers of compression on the image(PS/imageshack), but you can see that the data is there, even with some of the 'white diamond reflections' getting blown out.

Great work Randy. The first image is nice and the second just needs a little tweaking in Photoshop (hope you don't mind) like ivox3 mentioned.

I just used levels in Photoshop and ran it through Neat Image to clean up the noise...
