IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 

The Pi symbol reminded me of the central rock formations of
Stonehenge, and I imagined a prehistoric monument to the mystery
of this magical number...

DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 

The Pi symbols and the numbers were created in Photoshop 3 with
the text tool and saved as tiff images.  They were imported into
Bryce as symmetrical lattice objects and given a stoney texture.
The numbers are the first 21 decimal digits of pi, and are placed
in a circle facing in towards the central pi shapes.  True to the
original monument, there are five central pi's, with the center one
larger than the others.  Add some rolling hills and water, and viola!
