sun like in the attachment

ki_cz · April 16th, 2007

Hi all, I was just wondering if the sun in the following picture was 100% generated in maxwell ... I can't figure this out. I'm assuming that it is either an hdri image, or maybe an after effect in Photoshop? I can only get the "effect" of the sunlight, but I can't get the actual sun to show up as a bright part of the sky ...

the lens flare is easily added in p'shop, the burning out of the top of the buildings is also easily done in p'shop... don't know much about maxwell so can't say if it can or can't be done directly in maxwell

It looks like the burn is done in Maxwell by adjusting the ISO or Fstop or Shutter speed, the lens flare has been added in Photoshop or another photo editing software.
