IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 

Imagine infinity ! How can one grasp this transcendential phenomena in words or
as image ? Isn't it misterious, that any natural number 
has it's successor ? That the TV suddenly appears infinitely many times, when
you film the screen that shows the camera view ? 
Imagine a gallery with infinitely many pictures showing simultaneously your very
own visual perception. This is so far beyond
my imagination, that I decided to realize this idea with POV-Ray. 

DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 

There is not much to tell about special techniques or whatever since I hadn't
have much free time to work on this image.
I used photon maps and radiosity for some realistic effects and of course I had
to render the image a few tims in various 
resolutions to place it back into the scene as texture.
