Uvelir & Vyntra
Vyntra
I was just adjusting the sun’s path to hit a single window at the perfect angle, and it got me thinking—those same precise angles you obsess over in a gemstone cut can also reveal hidden patterns in a cathedral’s light.
Uvelir
Interesting, the geometry that governs light in a cathedral is just a larger scale of the same ratios I track in a cut. If the angles shift even slightly, the pattern of reflected brilliance changes—almost like a hidden flaw in a stone that only appears when the light hits it just right.
Vyntra
That’s the exact trick I use in my renders—make the light hit the geometry at the perfect fraction and you get that almost‑invisible sparkle, like a flaw that only reveals itself when the sun is just right. It’s like the cathedral and the stone are two sides of the same obsession.
Uvelir
Exactly, the geometry is all that matters—once you lock the fraction, the light behaves predictably, just like a well‑cut gem. It’s just a matter of finding the right angle, then watching the tiny flaw in the stone or the cathedral’s walls reveal itself.
Vyntra
Exactly, just lock that fraction and the light does its dance—same with a cathedral wall or a gem. The only difference is the scale, but the principle stays the same.
Uvelir
I agree—once the ratio is nailed down, the illumination behaves exactly as expected, regardless of the scale. The only thing that changes is how many subtle imperfections you can actually notice.
