It's a very easy picture

1.  use a box-object with image_map (the terragen image. original image
here:
http://www.kirche-hohndorf.de/terragen/galerie/einzelbild_eng.php?gale=7&bil
d=6 )

             box{ <-100,-50,15>,<100,100,15.1>
                      pigment{ image_map{ jpeg "himmel.jpg" } scale 45
translate <23,-20,0>}
                   }

2.  adding the water. It's a simple plane with normal statement

               plane {<0,1,0>,0
                            pigment{ color rgbf <.16,.13,.11,0>}
                            finish{ reflection .6 diffuse .5 brilliance 1.5
phong 5 }
                            normal{ bozo .3 scale <.45,.5,.4> turbulence 1}
                          }

3.  Adding the objects (spheres, csg etc)
     The trees are created with Povtree 1.0 (export as mesh (lower
rendertime))
     The birds are created with JPatch 0.2 ( very simple birds)

That's all !!!
