Ant Colony

This turned out to be much more difficult than I thought.
I wanted it to be a view from inside an ant hill, looking down several tunnels at once.
But since you can only point the camera one direction at a time I had to opt for a more
cavernous approach.
This came about after seeing my previous Dolphin from a
camera angle above the water. It gave me this idea, which came out quite nice. (It is the
same water, with a new sky, and without the light gel.)
The drinking horse was part of a different unfinished
image. Which has much less chance of being finished now that I borrowed
it's subject for this one.
This one went through several settings, and two horses
before I finally had a finished image I was happy with. The horse was created in Poser, but I did a bit of tweaking, as I wasn't fond of the default
horse.
A computer crash wiped this image out. Which turned out
to be a good thing, because after recreating it, this version of the
shark is much better than the original.
When I started this rendering it was almost
warm outside. As I worked, the weather grew colder and started to snow. I'm
sure that was just a coincidence. <wink>
