A bit of light relief from the snow.
Comments welcome.

Oh, I like the idea! ;D Now perhaps to make it even more delicious we need another pan with beans and bacon! ;)

Yummy.
I once had the idea to create a food landscape, all inside a white reflecting crater for a plate...
Never tried it though.
Was there a special idea ehind this or did you just need something to warm up?
Best Regards,
Jan

No, the idea really was to test the chrome effect by using Matts sugestion of upping the refractive index value. The spuds just seemed right for the pan! and then it had to go somewhere, so why not the desert! (for reflections).

Nice idea! I also like your use of the rock object!

That pan looks great!

Looks great Kevin, what setting did you end up with for the chrome?
I just saw that dandelo says a reflection of 1 and ior of 30 worked.

Actually, it was Matt who said that, just above me, I just confirmed that it looked good.
I'd been upping the main reflectivity up until then too. :)

These tatties look good, Kevin F! I'd have never thought of that!  :D
