Didn't get to an ocean beach this summer. Swam in a lake, boated on a river, but it's just not the same.

An actual 3d fractal flame, hovering over an ocean. It's actually a composite of 3 renders, one of the 3d fractal, one of an ocean at the same angle, and a 2d version of the fractal used to cast reflections in the water.

This image holds the record for taking too long. Too many blurry reflections, too many scattered and reflected light rays to calculated.

I planned on having a small object sit on the newspaper I had been working on, and put the sphere there as a place holder. I loved the reflections and refractions so much, I had to use it as is.

A male figure reflects, and is reflected, hundereds of times.

Aerial terrariums, my first use of the new interior reflections of Bryce 5. The trees are another of it's new abilities.

The memory of a beautiful scene tends to exaggerate the key points, trees are taller, valleys are deeper, vistas are wider, and the moon is bigger. I used a telescopic photo of the moon to get more detail.

The background mountains were part of another image I did while in Alaska. It needed something, so I added a bedroom. I really like the subtle shadows and reflections.

This didn't come out like I expected it to, but it is interesting.
