IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 
"Feast of the Voyagers"
While studying the mating ritual of the rear Dagger Back Frog, we keep hearing
stories from the locals about strange "Voyagers" that would visit a nearby
caldera every new moon.  Next new moon we found ourselves waiting just inside
the caldera when just after sunset the large "Voyager" arrived.  Then one by
one the smaller ones formed and detached from the large one and positioned
themselves around the caldera.  They remained that way for several hours and
the small "Voyagers" merged with the larger and when only the lager one
remained it returned back to the sky.  Why did the Voyagers come to the
caldera?  Maybe they here to gather energy form the lava, or maybe to perform
some sort of mystic ritual.  Perhaps they were here just to get a few pictures
to the folks back home.   

DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED:
This image was created with Bryce2 using standard textures that come with the
program.  Originally I attempted to add a spaceship that I had created in
CorelDream, but because Bryce's merge function doesn't work and problems with
building a 2-D picture list caused me to decide to do a simpler scene with
stock textures.  

The zip file contains the Bryce .BRC file for the picture.
