Background was pre-blurred in Photoshop and put on a verticle 2D face in Bryce, it is a mix of two real photos, and two Bryce renders. Background sand is part of the photo, and foreground sand is a mat on a horizontal 2D face. I also applied a sand mat to the infinite plane, and applied the background photo to a sphere surrounding the scene. These two things were specifically done, because if I didn't, you would immediately see where the scene "ends" in the reflection of the ship. The reason for pre-blur is more realism. If I didn't pre-blur, you would see NO blur in the reflection of the ship, yet it would be blurred in the background, your eye would notice this. Ship has jet engines to propel. ;o) AgentSmith
