Bryce 7.1 Pro. Render of Premium 64 rpp, TA, Boost Light, Reflection Correction, 6 hours 17 min. Lighting: 1. External HDRI. Parameters: Light From Inside, Quality 16, Saturation 52, Intensity 5,5, Specularity 1000, HDRI Effect 15, Include objects "Background". 2. Huge Radial Light acts as a loud-speaker of light of HDRI with the name "Background". Parameters: True Ambience Optimization, Use Gel, material is gray as default (Ambience 50). 3. Weak Sphere Dome Light shines right behind objects. In lighting ideas David Brinnen are used. In work my old models made in Bryce are used. The sense of this experiment consists in attempt of realistic visualization of diamonds on a light background by an example of work of StuartB4 http://www.bryce5.com/details.php?image_id=5262 How at me it turned out? Feedback is very much appreciated.

* Thank you, c-ram. Indeed, the table - it is low polygonal cylinder from the library.
Whaou... nice ligthning!! we can see caustics in a bryce scene and it's a uncommon effect! My only criticism will be on the table, I can see some poligonal hard edge. Maybe a model with higher resolution looks better. But no doubt a 5 on 5 and fullmarks!
* Thank you, David.
Wow! You got some caustics working. Well done. Such a level of realism is very difficult to achieve - as you know. 5/5 highly plausible - looks like I could reach into my monitor and pick that chain up!
* Thank you, electro-elvis, Horo. Very nice blurred reflection this property HDRI.
Very nice. I agree with Stuart about the chain but in the other two renders it looks excellent. The material on the mirror ball is very good. It gives a very nice blurred reflection.
I like quiet a few things in this render: 1. The gold colour looks very convincing. 2. You can see in the reflection of the sphere that you have modelled the whole room. 3. Nice models anyway 4. Good overall lighting. very natural 5. The table cloth is amazingly well done!
Forgot to say the render time was 33 minutes 11 seconds.
Nice. I like the image but would like to see the chain links more natural and laying down instead of standing up. The settings for the one I did were: No lights - just light from HDRI. Ambient Colour = Black. Skydome = Black. In IBL settings. Intensity = 14 Specularity = 79 HDRI Effect = 120 Sunlight Disabled. Rendered with Regular (Normal AA)
