That is way I pass the time on my barge, drinking mao tai and reciting  Li 
Bai's poems...  ;-)

I was just wondering how you tuned the haze so well to get the mountain 
peaks emerging range after range.
Pure art !!

Indolence becomes you. :-)

	All the birds have flown up and gone;
	A lonely cloud floats leisurely by.
	We never tire of looking at each other -
	Only the mountain and I.

Absolutely superb. I get a great sense of tranquility!

I shall remember the trick of tilting the ground fog, too - very useful. :)

Perfect!

All those 3000+ ideograms is the real Great Wall of China! ;)

Oh wow that is really nice!

You have inspired me to try something similar :)

You can rotate a ground fog?!?!?  I had no idea, but thats so cool!

No, you do not *rotate* the ground fog, but orient the up parameter 
differently, like this:

up  <0, 0.5, -0.2>

Simple and effective :-)

Thank you, Marc. I think this is the only instance where I used this trick, 
by orienting the up parameter of the ground fog. Since then I forgot about 
it (or did not need it, which is almost the same)
