It's out of my physik book. DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: Well, I used Moray to create the scene. First i began with the glass. It consist mostly of superelipsoids, because i wanted to get smoth edges.Then I created the stone plates and the soil. at last I placed the paper and then the grass. The grass are only cones, rotated in different angels. Althoug the scene is looking good, I'm not content with it. For example, I'm still searching for a method, to get a shadow under the glass.
