IMAGE DESCRIPTION:  A hurricane wrecks havoc on coastal town, but
   the nightmare is not over; in the light of a peaceful dawn, the
   lighthouse family awakens from their short, but much needed nap, to 
   to find that the storm has disturbed a denizen of the deep ocean.
   It attacks the lighthouse believing it to be the cause of its pain
   and misery.  The only defense that may  repel the nefarious
   beast is fire!  The keeper and his two sons use axes and hammers to
   break up crates and light a fire which now threatens both their home
   and the monster. 
DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: I used my lighthouse, 
   keepers house and dinghy from one of my previous entries.  I
   created them all in Raydream.  I created a new island and ocean
   using 4elements in Raydream.  The camera is too close to see the
   ocean, but its there.  I used freeform modeler to create the tent-
   acles and suckers.  I used the meshmodeler to create the body.
   I used an organic texture for the octopus, but wasn't satisfied
   until I added some reflective properties to it.  I used both a red
   and yellow light of limited strength to simulate fire.  I used
   both the Raydream fire elemental and 4elements fire texture. The
   stairs are just cubes placed around the rock.  The hardest part was 
   getting all of the tentacles around the lighthouse without getting
   them stuck in anything other than sand.  Even so I had to delete one
   arm, imagine it out of view bent under the poor creature- no wonder
   he's so angry!
