ok that pic flight took of the sunset shadow had been bugging me (discord.com/channels/270023348623376395/351983374510063636/1427701531674939523) so i did the obvious thing: downloaded an etopo DEM geotiff and used it to displace a scale model of the earth with a layer of uniform volume for the atmosphere, then looked up exactly which direction the sun set in on that day and put a sphere light over there 149 million km away 🌄 waddya know there are two mountains in just the right place and karma can kind of render a sunset even though it’s not spectral and doesn’t really have rayleigh scattering lobes
