IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 

contrast; creature of the deep sea versus men form the surface, giant octopus
versus man-made submarine, animal versus maschine

DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 

All modeling was done with Moray 3.2. The tool was especially useful for
handling complex, hierarchical structured objects. Highly recommended!
My goal was to create a realistic submarine atmosphere. I used an interior media
object - scattering type - as basis. A spotlight illuminates the submarine. The
spotlight is modulated through a half transparent bozo pattern. The result
looks like sun rays in the water.
