Cathay Pacific has very cool in-flight entertainment. Before liftoff, we were treated to this nifty progress screen; after we reached cruising altitude, we could also play games, watch a huge selection of movies or TV shows, and listen to "radio" or another giant selection of CDs (from which we could make our own playlists). This all came in very handy when I found myself unable to sleep on the 14-hour flight.
Lambert Shading and Bezier Curve evaluators. My my, I have smart friends. Andrew Bell, one of the newest Barbarians, helped me understand a bit more about vectors and tutored me into creating a basic Lambert shader for the flowfields. They are tuned down a bit for this image, but they are there when I need them. And dear old Ryan Alexander (oddly a friend of Andrew Bell's from an older job) helped me get the bezier evaluator in place. You might notice the curves on this image are very very smooth compared to the previous versions. Ryan gave me some code to allow for bezier interpolation with my original set of points. It runs a good deal slower, but makes for better large scale images for print.
Check out the large size.
Back in town for a few days. The Arrowleaf balsamroot have been loving to coll wet spring we have had.
Looking forward to catching up on my contact's wonderful images.

Coming up from the south the urban sprawl had long been contained by the natural barriers of marsh and wetland. Now that the northern connector is finally finished I expected the northward sprawl will resume.
