IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 

Just for the pleasure of creating a pleasing image, under the slogan "One
sphere, two cubes". These are the only objects present.



DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 

The image is based on the "infinity box" concept: transparant from the outside,
reflective from the inside. Two nested boxes are used, with one sphere in the
inner box. Each box has its own light source.
