Here is the FQ SLF compared with an input photograph. Despite more than 50:1 compression relative to the piecewise-faired version the fidelity to the input is still good though the highlights are noticeably dimmer. Each codeword / prototype has to represent a number of data lumispheres, so if the highlights in the reflected data lumispheres are not perfectly aligned they will be somewhat blurred / dimmed as you can see here. (I should also note that these file sizes don't include the size of the geometry which is another megabyte or so.)
