Hello. :)

New rendered images:
different caustics for camera moving despite fixed light source.png
--When the camera is moving--:
-On Photon Tracing, caustics aren't changing due to MISSED "variable" caustics;
-On Path Tracing, caustics are changing despite fixed light source.

Happy Rendering ...

Hello. :)

New rendered images:
Floor - non-roughness and little roughness.png

This is easier and better understand about the variable caustics. :)

Hello, guys.

At 0.1 sun size on OctaneRender and on GIMP v3.x: Amazing caustics is MAGIC for downscaled to 500x500 [email protected]% zoom* from 8k-pixel@100% zoom.

* - should use GIMP to open EXR FP32 image.

Hello, guys! :)

VERY IMPORTANT for avoid any confusion due to weak precision of noises+colors of JPEG or of PNG image type:
-after completed rendering, should choose "EXR" image type with uncompressed, and with FP32 for insane color depth (this competes perfect true color at in the real life ...

But this original "Wall" scene is edited (changed material from "glossy" to "specular") by me in 2014. ;)
