This time the image has all together 43 layer and while my PC has rendered
the image, Jackie aka ~Mignon has posted two of her wonderful homework
images. I had already thought that I've maybe worked to complicated and
have thereby produced unnecessary layer. This suspicion has been confirmed,
after I have looked Jackies images. Now I have to rework this image and I
hope I can save 5 or 6 layer.

All together I've probably worked more then 10 hours on it and I've needed
only for the shadow two hours. At first I'd to come up with something to generate
the shadow and then the adjustment of the gradiente has taken a lot of time.
And although I'm not happy with the shadow. I've still to learn a lot with the
gradient adjustment. To work with Screen-Relative coordinates on a rectangular
image with even borders comprised a lot of mathematical stuff, but I really
enjoyed those part of the work. The middle part contents one of my early
exercises, but I had always the feeling this image was not really ready and
so I've reworked it once again and, in addition, have added the texture for
the background.

Created with Ultra Fractal. No Postwork, all done with UF.

All comments and advices are very welcome und much appreciated.

FULL VIEW IS MUCH BETTER!
