Mysh-iray-bloom-test-1

After a tip from a friend, I found the bloom settings in the filtering tab under render settings for iRay. I'm not 100% happy with the results, but this was after a very brief play around. More experimentation is definitely needed. For now Photoshop will probably give me favourable results.

I've attached the settings used for this image. Initial settings were way to high with the glow easily twice as thick as here and you lost the core altogether. I am however very happy with the colour gradient. I also suspect that the bloom effect was probably so strong due to the very high luminance value on the cores as well. Possibly a combination of higher bloom values and lower luminance will get me what I am after.
