IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 

It is a street corner in a large city set some time in the future where hover
cars are a reality. The explosion was added for effect.

DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 

The image started from some experimentation with combustion. I took it a step
further and thought it might be an alright idea to blow up a building. From
this, I developed the street corner and added in the futuristic cars which were
another project that I was working on at the time. The traffic lights and
street lights are replicas of the ones surrounding my home town.
