IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 


   A man, prisoner among four walls, finds in himself a window onto the world.



DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 



   The scene was composed in Moray. The mattress (really poor) is an isosurface
superellipsoid (with some noise). The walls and the floor are made with
while-loops.
The candle is made of blobs (the code is based on Jaime Vives' "Vodu").
The paint is a landscape made with Terragen and then elaborated with Paint Shop
Pro.
I discovered POV-Ray (and computer graphics at all) this summer, so this is my 
first *serious* raytracing image.
