IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 

Sorry for my bad language but I'm a little french ;)
This scene represent some elements (fire with the sun, water with the sea, air
with the pixie (with her wings) and the movement of her hair, and earth with
the leaf)
Also this scene can be the representation of the meeting of the four fundamental
elements and maybe the melancholy, the solitude and the romantism of one of
elements: the air... (the pixie is alone on earth)

DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 

I began to make the pixie with Rhino 3D (in first the legs, then the feet, the
toes, the nails, the body, the arms, the head, the wings, and in finish the
principal form of hair ).
Then I made the drop and the leaf and its principal nervures (with Rhino 3D so)
I exported all in Moray (in .UDO) where I created the sea (a plane), the sky (a
big sphere), a lots of light and spot-light and all the textures.
I export this scene in POV to add a effect of lens flare.
Then I add some hair and some nervures with Paint Shop Pro.
The time to make this scene is about one month...
