WOW! nice image Christopher! Great texture and color.. I also like how the
background looks, with the fade and all. It tickles the imagination and
makes you wonder where you are and what is around you.You also got that dry,
rocky desert look correct, as your image is making me thirsty :)
No radiosity eh? This would be a good candidate for SmPOV or another
distributed render system which I'm writing myself, to bring down that
rendering time! :) Also, I'm hoping to eventually tackle the radiosity
problem with my program.
