IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 

I wanted to see some colorful webbed steps with glass spheres at
their center, and I wanted to try an aspect ratio other than the
usual 4:3 aspect ratio I've always used in the past. The result is
intended to be rendered at a higher resolution and printed at an 8:10
aspect ratio (ie., 8" x 10").


DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 

This image is indebted to the copy feature of Moray 2.5a. The render
time would have been lower, except I was trying (in a vain, yet
futile attempt) to remove the moire pattern on the fans, hence I used
very intensive antialiasing measures (+a0.1 +r6).
