IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 
    A forest clearing, a hanged man. Strangest is the granite
block, containg a metallic head thing in a pool. Oblivious, the wind gently
ripples the water, ignoring the tufts sticking up from the level grass.


DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 

*The head thing was done in sPatch, then textured a placed in Moray.
*Block created and textured in Moray.
*The trees were placed in Moray. The model was obtained from "tree10" that came
with Lparser. However, the blob output option gave round leaves, but the
standard pov output far better branches. The two model were merged by hand.
*Grass tufts were created out of bezier patches in Moray.
*The tree roots were done in sPatch.
*Tree bole and roots created in Moray, and textured.
*The light and camera were positioned with Moray.
*Grass tufts, tree bole, feet were positioned by hand.
*Feet by hand. Texture stolen from Povray blob demo of hand.
*Media, of course done by hand.

        Generally speaking, all of the complex textures are derived from Moray
library textures.
