IMAGE DESCRIPTION:

A nice female magician statue stays on the fountain. This is the 
focus in the scene. On the left side in the pic, there swim 
two little yellow fish. In front of the scene a mosquito sits 
on the wall. Beyond the fontain there is a tree and a bush.
The background consists of a fog that insulate two similar lacs,
a firework and a hill.

Please use a high contrast and brightness to view this image, because
the scene is dark.

DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 
First I created the fountain with the while directive and the ior
in the middle with Moray, then the water. It followed the woman 
and clothes(women is the demobabe from PovCD;Clothes modelled after
a pic that I saw). After this section comes ground with lakes.
(lake a difference between plane and sphere and a watertextured
plane that is under the first plane).Then I used galaxy and particle
plugin to make the image better. The sky is a plane with a transparent
T_Cloud texture and the soften hill in the background is a bicubic
patch created with Moray. The firework is from a other scene, but
I don't know from which scene it is. And the tree and bush is from a plugin too.
