IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 

My first IRTC submission, hope you like it :). I have chosen for a tight and
modern architecture. This is my vision of architecture in the future. Simple,
professional, back to the basics. I hope the future will be clean and with lot
of nature (+ nice architectural buildings). The frozen mountains symbolize the
hope for a future without increases in temperature. The glaring lights refer to
a future with enough electricity for everyone. The reflective buildings and the
hot air balloon symbolize the clean future without pollution. 

DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 

No special techniques used. Used macros for the grass and trees. The hot air
balloon is an asymetric scaled sphere. The mountains are an isosurface with
noise3d surface. Can't tell more about it :).
