IMAGE DESCRIPTION:
The Hunter walks across the mudflats, stops, drops his spear and disappears. Seems unbelievable.
Ray Tracing is a way of making believable images. Making a believable image of the unbelievable is a paradox. Believable is subjective anyway.
DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED:
All new, all handed coded in PovRay 3. Footprints are the difference of a textured plane and csg 'feet'. Rocks etc are height fields.
