Hi, Yadgar !

I'm glad to meet here yes-=fan, that thinks the same way as me - Dean's
artworks seem to be created for raytracing.

May be you will like my idea to create a library of parameterized
macros, implementing different kinds of 'Yes-objects', like stones,
plants, corals, shells etc, everything we can find on Dean's paintings
and what our fantasy will produce, and then use it for constructing
scenes, illustrated the whole Dean's world.

Thanks to Mike's comments and scene example I'm already started to
work on it, the first seed is here:
news://news.povray.org:119/63f5a757@news.povray.org

I suppose, having as a consultant such an experienced person, like Mike,
this project will grow fast. I will be glad, if will join it or may be
share some thought about better development.

I will post news about a progress here: 'povray.object-collection'group.

I'm also familiar with POV from about 1992, I studied computer graphics 
in university with it. Now I'm getting back to the origin ...

Now playing 'Magnification' :)
(I was at this live show, it was fantastic !).
