This is a gorgeous piece! I had no idea you could use these kinds of things as maps. I'm not all that experienced tho... BEAUTIFUL!

It's really an amazing image! Not only love the transparency but also the highlighted surfaces.

Thanks for all the comment everyone. And Radolf, I always thought I was rather unquaternated. To be completely honest, the transparency and highlights simply fell that way. They are a product entirely of the environment map which is a photograph of a ruby. You can even refer to the ruby photo to identify each element. I myself was amazed when it all came together in such a stunning way.

This is a most excellent quaternion, and I know my quaternions. :-) Well done!
