The Ruins
"LUXOR, Egypt (AP) -- Through a partially opened underground door, Egyptian authorities gave a peek Friday into the first new tomb uncovered in the Valley of the Kings since that of King Tutankhamun in 1922. U.S. archaeologists said they discovered the tomb by accident while working on a nearby site"
Copied from an article I read on Friday, this inspired the picture... for who knows how many ruins are buried beneath the sands of time...

Terrain surfacing, and atmosphere are mine. This is my first terrain with the registered version of WM 1.25... yes I took the plunge, and look ma "NO POLYGONS" :) but Poly and Gon are there now ....
Slight gamma adjustment, some sharpening to the distant terrain, birds, frame and sig in PSP 9.
Now I have to relearn the program again, as this version is more difficult, lots of buttons... LOL.
Many thanks to one and all for your contstant encouragements and help...
As Always,
Pat
