== Extra 1 - photon mapping ==
Instead of doing the suggested inter-surface reflections using photon mapping, I decided to try out the much more spectacular-looking caustics effects. I switched to a near-perfectly transmissive glass material, and altered the scene settings to facilitate my objective.

=== Result ===
This is the final result, using 500k photons for caustics. The algorithm has converged to a pretty believable image. See below for some intermediate steps.

=== Intermediate 1 ===
Using only 10k photons for caustics, the map gets far to crude an the artifacts plenty. [[BR]]

=== Intermediate 2 ===
Stepping up to 100k photons, things begin to look better, but the sharp details are still missing. [[BR]]
