Lighting the environment


This is a render of my environment, where I have lit the environment using a skylight. To create a skylight, I went to Create>Light>Skylight, and put the skylight in the environment. I then went to Rendering>Advanced Lighting>Light Tracer, set the Rays/Samples to 500, and Bounces to 2, then rendered the image out. It took a lot longer to render than usual, about 10 minutes.

The rendering made the environment more realistic, adding shadows and texture. One person said that it looked like a plastic city.
