IMAGE DESCRIPTION: A nature scene dominated by trees.

DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED:  The trees and bushes were
done using Onyx Tree Professional, and exported as DXF.  The couple was
done using Poser 2.0.
For the landscape, a DEM map of the Blue Ridge Mountains in Pennsylvania
was used, obtained from ftp://spectrum.xerox.com/pub/map/dem.


For the bushes, the leaves were exported as curved plate DXF blocks.
The alpha channel of a Japanese Maple leaf image from the leaf library was
used for a transparent 2D texture map for the plates.
