brian,
these are all nice tests.
one thing that is important if you use water in images though is motion blur. i think your "icy" example shows the problem.
if a photographer makes pictures of flowing water he normally uses a long exposure time which gives some blurriness and motion to the water.

cheers

You're right, that's good advice. Usually only with macro photography like a single drop in a pool of water you might see a fast shutter speed for clarity.

Here's a small geyser animation I created, rendered with Maxwell:

Victor: Quit teasing...

Everyone else: Thanks! What a fun program.

ahhh... mega cool Brian... hehe.. and you say Victor..? Realflow5..? aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh..

[Bubbaloo]

OK, one more geyser animation. This one, each frame is rendered to SL10 and I remembered to set the cpuid to 1 for each frame (to eliminate flicker). Also put a mud material to the liquid.
