IMAGE DESCRIPTION:
The last image ever seen. The nightmare of
every tired driver.
DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED:
I suggest this for best in the class of the most off-topic
while fitting the contest subject name into the title.
The fog does more than its share to cover up the
imperfections in the image. The guiding image came from the
website of the Peterbilt company. Their designers should not be
too much after my scalp for the liberties I took with the
proportions.
The key to this image is the use of lights. Every light you
see and reflections on the truck bumper come from light sources.
They are the only ones in the scene. Method of generating them is
in the source code. There are no other lights in the scene.
The higher rendering resolution was required to prevent POV
from ignoring the smaller parts of the grillwork. These were
preserved in the size change by PS.
