George, I'll be very happy to see these comparisons. It's something very interesting for me. If you got the time, I'd like to know your conclusion, knowing that the manipulation and the familiarity of a renderer enter in a big part in the final result. The best renderer, is the one that you know. If you want we can keep on that discussion by mail.

Thanks, Marc and Akinlolu.

The background tree is indeed way too dark for the overall tone level of the picture. Good catch Marc :-)

Lately I am just experimenting with different renderers - Luxrender (free), Indigo (demo), Kerkythea (free), Thea (demo), Yafaray (free - inside Blender3D) and of course Accurender nXt (licensed) - on existing models, as I am currently running only constructions of some of my finished projects (mostly residential buildings). I am doing that now in order to see the pros and cons of each program and to compare the suitability of each one for my work, as I am not doing renderings for living, but I really enjoy the whole learning and experimenting process.

Nice, George. For me, the tree in the background has to much contrast, or is too dark... But I like the softness of this picture... and the "true-false symetrie" of the building.

Very good restoration if I remember this project way back then.
