Something I have been working on for the past couple of weeks. I wanted
to add more to the scene but I don't have enough system resources left
so it will have to do. Hope you like it....

That's great!  Its not at all like other scenes of yours I remember. 
Lots of reflective transparent shapes in a mathematical grid as I 
recall.  I seem to remember that you keep up a pretty macho system?  I'm 
confused. This image does look SO demanding.

I go through various phases :) I used to play with menger sponges, then
I moved on to HF images, played with trees for a while, then came media,
played with photons for quite a while when MegaPaov was first introduced,
and.... and....

A year and a half ago I had the fastest system of anyone on this server.
Now, sadly, it is middle of the road. I have a 950 athlon with 256 megs
of ram.

Peak memory use was around a 750 megs. I thought my poor hard drive was
going to die from all of the disk thrashing going on swapping out memory.
The 4 trees were pretty much the nail in the coffin.

I have viewed this on my monitor at home and at work and it looked fairly
balanced on both. But, I admit it may look different on other people's
systems. Probably that assumed_gamma thing... ....or you have your monitor's
brightness cranked all the way up...

That's a rather interesting idea. I'll give it some thought. Thanks.
