IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 

Vegetation flourishes everywhere, turning the harshest landscapes into gardens.
The sphere balances the scene in my eyes and it's there because I like it. 



DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 

Credits: 1.Povray 3.1g user docs for the cloud texture, which I modified
somewhat. 2. Ron Parker for showing me how to do "noise within noise," enabling
this leafy texture.  The rocks, leaves, and branches are all made from
isosurfaces of the noise3d function in povray.  Radiosity was turned on.
