Hello everyone. We desided to replicate a photo. Not entirely, but a close match as we had only one photographic reference. All credit goes to my coworker Alex yet again. Time spent, appx 4 hours from start to finish.
Take your picks, which one you think is a photo?
Enjoy!
very very nice
clean gi precise and realistic shadows nice materials 
only one thing but not a critique 
in the reference photo the light seems fall faster respect the simulation (look the table’s legs seems become more darker respect the simulation)
CONGRATULATIONS
awesome yet again.
if i have to scroll up and down 20 times and still am not sure then it doesn’t really matter which is which :lol:
i’ll go with the top image as the photo…somethin is fishy about the flower on bottom :?:
-joe
My vote - Bottom image CG
I’m going with the bottom image being CG. The shadows look more too soft on the this image and there reflection on the table top in the first image looks more realistic ? ( whatever that means ?) I also think the more screwed up flower is most likely to be real.
I had to load the two of them into the Ram Player in max and slide 80 times to come to my conclusion - amazing realism.
Nicely matched.. either way 
Nice images both. Top is photo. Look at wall paper definition. Also another clue seems to be the baseboard on the top image…where’s the knots and burls in the lower image?..nice anyways!
nice work! I say the topp is cg, but not sur of anything
the top one is CG!
better then real life thats for sure!
gr8 stuff!
nice!
first one is the photo(i think)
I would say top one rendering, cause there is more detail than in the second one, and you want to fool us…
But really, I can not say
you fool us,
these are both rendrings
I’ll guess the bottom one but only because of what lloks t be a small uneven gap between the floor boards and the baseboard. Either way it’s really nice.
nice job. Top is the cg to me. I’m like 95% sure.
Great work, congrats.
For me the sec pic is the photo
bye
Neo
Great job
First one is CG, 99,99% sure
Very nice comparison, but i recon bottom one is cg
I’ll say top one is the photo, because you can see wallpaper lines and the bottom one is completely smooth.
I’d say second one is cg.
Second one is a photo for me purely because of the greater noise in the blue channel.
Phenomenal job by Alex.
I think the second one is cg because of the aliasing on the brightly lit table legs, and the vases are flat on the bottom.
But I would accept either one as a photo if they were presented to me as such.
