Simple Still Life with GI - Loose Screws

[sasapp]

Just a simple render of a screw model I made in Rhino3D with HDRI env map and radiosity (background only). Post-work in PS4. This was a test to see if I could use an old Bryce trick to fake DOF. I was considering making a tutorial on this technique if anyone's interested.

BTW, please don't turn this thread into a argument about DOF. Please comment on my final image and a potential tutorial. Thanks.

somone was neat with a hack saw!

If it is one improvement, I belive a little more AA could be helpfull.

Those are bolts, aren't they? I've seen headless bolts like those before... these look very realistic.
