This is only my second (maybe 3rd) full picture, so I'm very
much still learning (and appreciating the joys of other peoples
macros :-).

Most of this, bar the rocks which are noisy isosurfaces, is various
macros from the net.

It's meant to be a hominid meeting some alien entity in our prehistory,
not sure if that comes across.

Anyway, I like the hard shadows and lack of caustics: deliberately
avoiding photons, radiosity and area lights means even a big 1280x980
renders in under an hour. And I like the idea of a big sphere floating
above a plane :-)

I would've gotten away with it too, if it wasn't for those pesky kids!
