DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: Forgive our English !! !:-) The idea raises from a winter picture of Stonehenge. We wouldn't reproduce the place in detailed way but simply give it in a snapshot. We started by modelling stones with Moray. Then we put them into the scene so that the prospetic view was respected. Stones' material is multilayered texture that get snowed stone effect. The terrain is a plane on which is applied a bump map texture to simulate the footprints and a procedural pigment of granite type. The litte spotlights are white microsphere randomly spread over the ground. The sky too is a plane whith a procedural texture. The fog effect has been added to raise the misterious atmosphere of the place. At last, we have included the Cris Colefax LensEffect to create the sun and lens flare. The picture can be reproduced using the included files, we haven't included the file TGA for the bump mapping due to its size (11Mb).
