My first uncensored thought was hell on earth. My second thought was the
same as the first.

My first thought was: Can I see the source?
The only thing wrong is the water, and then only if you aren't going for
a surreal look...

Sad, resignation. It went all terribly wrong, the end is near. No way out.
A sad ballad by REM would perfectly fit to this picture.

As I scrolled down the image as it first came up I thought, in about this
order...
Sunrise
Sunset
Volcano
Armageddon
Isolation (about here the stone showed up)
Refuge from the destruction (beginning of the water)
Pollution (where the water started looking oily)
Alien (when some of the clouds scrolled out of sight)
Looking at the whole thing now I get a feeling of the proto-earth before
Oxygen was available. Sterility and Chaos with a hint of insentient
violence.

the feeling of standing over a heating vent in the cold of winter. cold
everywhere except where i am standing.
if you scale the water down a bit, it would look really really nice. now it
only looks really nice.

Curiosity, if that's an emotion. I thought immediately of those old Life
magazine illustrations of what Earth might have been like before biological
life existed or, in fact, before physical conditions would permit it to
exist. Those pictures kept me busy for hours as a child, wondering what it
would FEEL like to be there--which leads us in a circle to your original
question, Mr. H. Thanks for reminding me.

You're absolutely right! I have always wondered about this song; it's got
this surreal setting. Everything is wrong, the tension of the moment. I
might be wrong, of course, but I think it fits:
ODDFELLOWS LOCAL 151
Oddfellows local 151 behind the firehouse
Where Peewee sits to prove a sage to teach
Peewee gathered up his proof
Reached up and scratched his head
Fell down and hit the ground again
....firehouse....
Why do the heathens rage behind the firehouse
Where Peewee sits upon the wall to preach
This boy and girl they gather pearls
Of wisdom falling from his mouth
Wash off the blood wash off the rum
...firehouse ....

Jealousy, mostly. Those are some very nice clouds.
And then hope, hope that the light rays filtering down through the clouds are
actually laser beams bringing fiery death to all.

Hmm... Difficult to formulate.
The water looks unnatural. Peaceful, but disturbing, somehow. The island and the
warm light seem inviting in contrast.

Awestruck...up until just under the rock, then not. So I scrolled back up.
Oh, yeah... the amazement is back...

Awed... until the water came. It could be some sort of unworldly liquid
on another planet...

The POV-Ray Rorschach test, hmm?
Well, my feeling is: confused. It looks like I'm looking at an island,
but somehow it looks like I should be seeing more there than just a
rock. It looks like something's draped over a nub of rock on the left
end. Sick as it seems, the island actually reminded me more of a
close-up floating turd at first than anything else.
Other than that, emotionally I find the amount of red and gold in the
sky is a tad disconcerting; I liked the original better for sheer
beauty, though I guess that's not entirely what you were going for here.
As I thought in the prototype image: Excellent clouds and sun rays (they
look quite real, and I've seen my share), not-so-good water but a
fantastic great color for it.

First, one word:
Wrong
Then a few seconds later: "Red sky at morning, sailors take warning."

I live in Norway. Not too many R.E.M. shows playing here... But I saw them
on the "Monster" tour a few years ago. Oh dear, I'll never forget that
evening! And they had Radiohead as support, before they went bestselling.
Just an idea: An informal ray-tracing contest. Render your favorite song by
any known group.
Simen.

1) We do not know who struck first, but it was us who dimmed the sky
2) Frodo failed
3) Doom II (Hell on Earth)

I had a strong feeling this is what earth will look like in the end, when
the known laws of physics will break down. Gravity first...
Very good, it gives me the shivers. Very, very nice clouds...

This makes me feel asthough I'm asleep. It has that
real/unreal quality to it that you only get in dreams or
when reading and making the scene up in your head.
Nice work, keep em comming.
