IMAGE DESCRIPTION:
Arriving home late, Vicky's partner glimpses through the dining room window 
and discovers what an impact their absence has.

DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED:
I modeled and UV mapped the following items in Wings3d: all of the china and 
boxes in the cabinet, the chairs, candles, fruit, fruit bowl, wine bottle, 
wine in bottle, wine glasses, wine in Vicky's glass, all of the silverware, 
the hanging lamp and the floor tiles.  The doilies in the cabinet and on the 
table are height fields.  The china cabinet is lots of POV-Ray CSG.  The 
plates on the table, candleholders, picture frames, window frame, walls and 
table legs are all POV-Ray CSG.  The model is Victoria 3 from DAZ Productions, 
posed using Poser 5.  The tablecloth and window curtains are meshes that were 
positioned in Poser 5 using the cloth simulation.  Vicky's dress is a modified 
version of Vic3 Dress1 from Poserfashion.  After positioning Vicky wearing the 
dress in Poser 5, I exported the dress and modified it in Wings3d.  Vicky's 
hair is Koz's Short bob from Kozaburo.  Vicky's shoes are Ladies Shoes from 
Mystic Nights.  The scene was rendered in POV-Ray using a two-pass radiosity 
technique.
