IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 

The StarLobster is feeding on the cosmic rays of the nearby 
stars.

This was an experiment in using lensflares with a
mathematical placement formula.


DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 

I first mutated a form file using a minus number.

I then converted to an inc file.

The textures were a mixture of various organic textures,
that I have.

I then applied a random seed to galaxy.inc, to create the
nice galaxy.

Then I created a lovely lensflare placement routine,based
on random numbers.

I then just raytraced the image.
