Photography :

As some of you know, this site is not updated often. Alright! It's NEVER updated! :) Nonetheless, that doesn't mean I'm dead or that I stopped taking pictures.

No, my true homepage for photographs is on Flickr at this address:

This is an implementation of the Practical Analytic Model for Daylight paper I used for my cloud builder tool.

Also, the first cloud display attempt using an ugly spherical sprite :

Cloud Rendering   Cloud Rendering   Cloud Rendering   Cloud Rendering   Cloud Rendering   Cloud Rendering   Cloud Rendering

(I posted the images as a testimony of my very first steps even though I tend to agree : this doesn't look like a cloud at all! =)

 

Just so you see I'm not sleeping around, here are the latest snapshots of my clouds :

Cloud Rendering   Cloud Rendering   Cloud Rendering   Cloud Rendering

Cloud Rendering   Cloud Rendering   Cloud Rendering   Cloud Rendering

(Only direct lighing here, no multiple scattering or aerial perspective yet, there are still some bugs in my mesh rendering and.I'm only using one mesh for the whole display)
(But, all in all, it's somewhat resembling more and more to a cloud, isn't it? =)

 

C# Source code for my little cloud builder application is available here (updated 05-07-31).

 

 

Some older snapshots of the New York City mesh for Moto Racer 4 (~650,000 polygons lighted in real-time using my spherical harmonics plug-in) :

The classic Cornell Box rendered with my old photon maps renderer named "Flower"(caustics were disabled here) :

 (note that the second image was computed almost instantly since I used a special light separation algorithm of mine allowing the user to change light and material properties in real-time)
