Most excellent! 8)
Personally I like to see clouds a little more "puffy" looking without so much details, but these
look very impressive. Good job!

Great to see you back after so long!
I remember this image. Nice that you redid the render on your new system.
How much faster is it now?

I wonder how fast it would be if you set:

Detail 0.75
GI the same as is now
AA4
Raytrace atmosphere enabled

Atmo samples 12
Cloud samples equivalent to ~0.7 detail. (how many cloud samples do you have now and what's the detail equivalance?)

Cheers,
Martin

Ah ok, thanks.

I'm curious how fast it is with the settings I recommended.
I bet at least 50% ;)
