Fellas, it's time to abandon radiosity...

Do you have a website showcasing all your works of art in one place?

The garland is a piece of really bad-scripted code... (I'll post it later)
The paper swirl is not mine :-\
here is the code

// Persistence of Vision Ray Tracer Scene Description File
// File: .pov
// Vers: 3.5
// Desc:  serpentin pour lightbeam


#include "colors.inc"
#include "textures.inc"
#include "skies.inc"

camera {
   location  <0,5,-65>
   look_at   <40,10,00>
   right     x*image_width/image_height
   rotate clock*y
}

light_source { <-10,2,-47> color White scale 2 shadowless}
light_source { <0,2,25> color White scale 2}
light_source { <10,2,-47> color White scale 2 shadowless}
sphere { 0,400 texture { T_Cloud3 scale 250} hollow}

#declare el= box { 0,<0.5,0.5,0.1> texture { pigment { Pink} normal { bumps
0.1}} }

#declare i=0;
#declare rayon=0.5;
#while (i<100)
   #object { el translate rayon*z rotate 20*i*x translate i*x}
   #declare i=i+0.1;
   #declare rayon=rayon+0.01;
   #end

I'm very impressed.... if you print this on photo paper people will 
definitely think it's a real photograph.

I did, as I did with all your images :)

thank you!

It's not POV-related, but I too have made something for christmas, the same
thing I do every year: a Jingle Bells remix, this time in the style of
Aurora, by Nova: http://sad.nostalg1c.org/backtrack/aurabells.mp3

> Keep on and see you later ;-)

I certainly hope to see more of your work later :)

cu!

   Thanks, it's awesome. I love that seam on the balls... it's a great 
detail. But I don't see the Christmas tree reflected on the balls... :)

The garland is incredible.  The rest is amazing.  Nice work!

Your name seems to suit you, Lightbeam.  Your love of shiny, reflective 
things brings out the best in POV-Ray.
