DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED:
The cave wall and stands were created as a heightfield with 
paintshop pro.  The candles were created with a candle
generating include file of my own design for pov-ray 3.01 
isosurface patch.  The include file is available for the 
public under my download page.  The knife was modeled in
rhino and placed in the scene by hand.  The eyes were 
created by an eyeball generating include file of my own
design.  It is available at my download page.  All of the
object generating include files used in this project were
created for this project, then released to the public.
