IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 
<The basic idea was to see what effect the lenses in this image would have 
on the text on the sheet of paper. The image consists of only an oak desk, 
a reading lamp, a sheet of paper and a pair of reading GLASSES.>

DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 
<The reading glasses and the lamp was created from about 20 different objects 
modelled with a demo version of a program I am currently testing and each object

was then saved as a RAW file containing between 800 and 60 000 triangles. 
These RAW files were then imported using Pov-SB and exported as POV objects.
The total size of all the different pov files came to 15.85 Mb as a result of
all the smooth_triangles used.
The wooden desk is a simple plane with a wooden texture and the sheet of paper 
with text was created using an image map where a text file was imported onto the
image.

This image was created in about 6 hours. >
