Caustics Question

I’m trying to figure out how caustics work, and I’ve done a tutorial, but it was a really old tutorial. The results are promising, but something’s not quite right.

The photon effects seem a little scattered, and I was wondering if anyone had any idea how I can refine that situation. Do I need a higher photon count? (I used 200,000). Or is there some other thing that needs tweaking? If you need more info about this little project, let me know.

No one has any idea how to make the caustic effect not look so mottled?

Increase blur on photon lamp …

I had to play with blur and search to achieve something good with caustics on yafray !

Oh, I didn’t even notice that one! Thanks, mate
