What a beautiful image. Everything about it, even the aspect ratio! I concur
about the clouds being top-notch; they have an ethereal look that I don't think
I've ever seen in a POV image before. Kind of like they're just hanging in the
air, languid, *slowly* morphing into other shapes. The immediate thought that
comes to my mind is a kind of 'Mount Olympus' atmosphere, somewhat real, yet
somewhat heavenly. And the statue's textures, lighting etc. go so well with it.

I do see a slight resemblence to the old, classic Columbia Pictures logo. ;-)

This image belongs in the 'Hall of Fame.'
