Problems with a new video card not wanting to handle complicated images, had me change to new subjects 4 times. I rushed to replace the broken one without doing enough research.

My PC updated to Windows 10, and it seemed to go flawlessly until trying to run the scripts to setup this image. Permissions were easy to fix, but an unused mysterious missing font turned out to be the thorn in the watermarking script.

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.

What a beautiful morning. My mornings are never this nice. Oh wait, that's more like my morning.

Thanks to Royce for helping name the image, his suggestion had the most thumbs up. (1)
Now post links about VisualParadox.com all over the internet, or I shall blot out the sun.

I didn't use lo-res models as the tiny trees in the background, so this image had over 22 trillion polygons. (69.6 trillion when rendering the dynamically generated parts.) Defiantly NOT a model of efficiency.

I was trying to rush out the door for a business trip, but had to wait for this one to finish rendering.

I'm working on a collection of prints that will be sold in Alaska this summer. So to keep up with wallpapers as well, expect less variety in the themes for a month or two.

Under the setting star, where the glow rods grow, the ocean stretches far and we dream of long ago.
