Getting the software setup was a bit of a problem.  I was trying to build on the Myth computers and had an extra line in my .cshrc file that prevented pbrt from building.  Once I got that taken care of everything ran smoothly.  


== Picture 1 ==

Had issues placing the light source so that the neck and background appear dark.  Sufficient patience ultimately acheived this goal.

== Picture 2 ==

Had some issues figuring out the rotation coordinate system.  Having done so, it was just an issue of correctly placing the light.  This took a few iterations, but turned out fine in the end.

== Picture 3 ==

I spent a fair amount of time placing the lights correctly.  I also tweaked the colors on the lights in order to achieve the appropriate balance between the main light and fill light.

== Picture 4 ==

On this one, I had light placement/angling and color issues as before.  I also spent some deciding which of the light sources could be spot lights, and which ones had to be area lights.  Ultimately, I decided that all of them except for the accent light had to be area lights.  The three area lights take a while to render.
