Here is the revised version of the Courtyard.  I changed the lighting using a light orange shader light (still wanting to keep the arches mostly white) and changing the angle of the distant light.  The orange light brought better texture appearance to all of the stone; a good trick to remember.

That looks tons better. Using a 'back' light of the opposite color spectrum of the front 'tint' light would highlight the edges and indentations even more. I had suggested 20%, but even 5% would work. Does the stone work have a bump map?

Hi all.
Had been planning on posting some more, maybe even something new, but have ended up getting Covid for the second time so am now stuck in bed feeling miserable.
Going to be a while before I am back at the computer and able to do anything

   Sorry to hear about that.  I had long covid that went from October to Christmas then got it again (new strain) a week later.  Get a Paxlovid shot at the pharmacy as soon as you can.  (depending on where you are you  need a doctor order.)  I wound up in the hospital.
    Be well soon.

Yeah this is the second time having covid for me and I already have a pre-existing chronic illness very like long covid, unfortunately, that also means I can't risk the shots either as the last one I had caused problems, Bit of a rock and a hard place, luckerly I don't seem to be as sick this time round. For now I am just babying myself a bit and focusing on getting rehydrated and food
