IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 
    The main theme of this image was inspired by by songs of
roses and briars. 


DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 
    The Vases are Surfaces of revolution
with different julia textures applied. 
The main part of the scene is viewed through a brilliant cut diamond face
created with triangles. The outer part of the image is viewed through a thin
box with the diamond shape cut out and the same Julia texture used on the
woman's vase is used but with a .9 transparancy. 
The thorns were created using a spread sheet. 
The lightning is made up of several prisms with a spreadsheet used to reverse
the order for the return side of the lightning.
The figures were transferred from Poser to POV with OBJPOV. The terrain was
transferred from Bryce to POV using OBJPOV.
The ZIP file contains a reduced POV file that can run as is with the terrain and
Poser figures missing.  
        The roses were created with CSG and a while loop. The Leaves were
created with prisms.
