'A Fine Festive Feast' still-life render - designed, composed, and rendered by Jason Garth Edwards at www.jayargonaut.com

A festive farmhouse feast – An update with added depth🤔

This is going to be a very short blog post…but I guess that is okay! It is just an update an an oldish scene that I built: ‘Festive Farmhouse Feast – this is one, like others, that you come back to, and I might come back to again to update, look again, improve, change, re-build, re-light etc.

So this isn’t a major change, but wanted to post it as an update with ‘added depth’. I tend to use Adobe Photoshop quite a bit to post-edit my Blender model compositions. Photoshop is great, and like most packages only getting better. Anyway, this is the same composition but I have been using photoshop to add more depth-of-field. The new neural filters, especially the ‘depth-blur’ are great. with the depth blur you can post-edit your ‘focal-range’ and ‘focal-distance’ to great effect, you can really add some depth to your images. So here are two new edited renders:

That is it for this post. I hope you like the renders😊.

Have a great day everyone!

Kind regards, Jay

    1. Thank you Leturos👍! I know what you mean mate, it is all about levels, as my Son often reminds me…we level up, only to get humbled again🤔…😄. Well as it happens I had never heard of Google lens before, so there we go. Best…jay✌️

  1. To be honest with you, I like short posts like these. I have dyslexia and it’s incredibly difficult for me to read a whole bunch of text at one time. Dyslexia, unlike what most people believe, isn’t the inability to read, but more like having difficulties. It’s another developmental disorder just like autism and others like it are.

    By the way, I love your renders. 😊 My paternal grandparents live on a small farm in rural Kentucky, an unincorporated community named Austin, Kentucky, which you can tell has no municipal government of it’s own.

    I’m subscribed for updates, by the way. Just wanted to let you know. 😉 Keep up the great work, which I know you will. 😎

    1. Hi Joseph and thank you😊! Yes I understand slightly how it is, I have a couple of friends who are dyslexic, so kind of get where you are coming from.

      Thank you so much for your kind words Joseph, I am so glad you like the renders, getting comments like these makes it all worthwhile😊. That kind of sounds cool where they live? I live in a city, and must admit sometimes I wish I didn’t. Sometimes I wish to live in a very small community, a village or even small commune. Many years ago a friend and I had a place in a small village in Bulgaria and that was cool✌️.

      Thank you Joseph, I really appreciate it😊👍. I will do my friend, you too🤜🤛

  2. Love the depth of field effect. Very cool. I have a really old version of PhotoShop, so anything like that I need to get with the shot. I bracket them with different apertures and shutter speed… which is why I’m drowning in jogs, lol.

    1. Hay Daryl. Thanks for the kind comments🙏, appreciate it. Yes Photoshop now is very good I must admit, like most of these graphic suites they just keep getting better! They are worth upgrading if you can. But sounds like you are doing it the old-school skill way, which of course is ultimately better, and should be saluted👏👍. It reminds me of that saying:

      ”You can’t get a pork-shop out of a pig’s-arse!” 🤔…😄.

      The better your skill and original shot, the better😊. I guess all the glut of Jpgs is the downside! Best…Jay
