IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 

The Cape Hatteras lighthouse, the tallest brick lighthouse in the United States,
in its original location. The lighthouse was recently moved farther away from
the encroaching Atlantic.

DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 

All objects are CSG except for the beach, which is a height field. The cloud and
sky_sphere textures are modified from POV-Ray samples; all other textures are
mine. I ran out of time in the end, which is why the background elements are
not as detailed as the lighthouse. . .
