IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 

The topic Decay made me think instantely in old buildings or castles. I decided
to use a 
nice backround from Terragen and create some simple ruins which are conquered
slowly 
by the vegetation. The decay of the building has not been interfered by humans.




DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 


I started with the backround and placed it in the 3D Studio. Then I was able to
position the
camera the way, it mached the perspective of the sky.
The stones are simple cubes with a noise modifier.
The trees are some textures and the grass has been created with the ShagFur
Plugin.
The birds are very simple objectes placed at a long distance and positioned that
way, they look
like birds.
