IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 


I find the Egyptian civilisation fascinating with its mysteries...perhaps also
the influence of Stargate? 


DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 


the complete scene was created with PovLab using the patch of 150 additionnal
textures.
I've created some clouds with ellipsoids and a semi-transparent cloudy texture 
I've used the option ultra-wide-angle for the camera (fov-135): that gives more
dynamism to the image. 
The ground fog and the rainbow were added to produce an impression of mystery
