i'm a bit reluctant to submit "remix" images of existing works, but here goes anyway.

this is rendered with my 4-day-old new renderer; it's a spectral (wavelength-based) renderer that can cleanly handle lots of interesting physics, in this case the light source is a black body emitter (wiki: [link]) at about 9500K. i look forward to doing much more with this renderer and letting others use it in the future (read: after my #$&*@% exams).
