Already I'm making a railway with the train and bridge. Camera is located
under the train a little from back. There is also an old destroyed "High
Voltage" sign laying on the rails. there are first renders. I'm waiting for
comments :).

Yes so did I, it turned out like quite a good idea.  But I guess it isn't 
something we can do every week...

Hello.

I posted in p.b.s-f my include file for diamonds macro, and here is the test
file for the image (maybe not exactly the same parameters):

#include "diamond.inc"

global_settings {
  assumed_gamma 1.0
  max_trace_level 50
}

Here is attached another instance of a diamond with photons.

Sorry, I posted twice (the server told me an error for the first one ...).

Nearly completed Christmas scene.  I will finish with radiosity enabled for
the final version.

This is a beautiful scene, almost surrealistic. I like that very much. The 
water is fine indeed.

I'm also working on an image for CGSpheres.  It's a Tesla Coil, but I still
need to add a couple bugs flying around.

Even an image this small took 9 and a 1/2 hours to do.  I think it might
have been the radiosity and 1500+ light sources.  Even without the
radiosity, this still takes some significant time to render.
