IMAGE DESCRIPTION: This image shows an F/A-18 Hornet Trainer flying 
low over New York City at about 4:30 am EST.

DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: I first started by setting up 
the camera, lights, and jet model, useing parenting to stick everything 
together. Then I set up scene effects, backdrop, fog, etc. Finally I used
LW city builder to create the city scape and rendered the whole thing out
at 800x600 17x AA. Since post production isnt allowed, and I like to add 
noise to all my images to give em a slighty grainy look, I had to work 
around the problem in photoshop, I created 2 800x600 images for noise, 1
color, and 1 B&W. Then I used Lightwaves front image mapping to apply the
images as forground images, and render them with the image. NO post production!
