Landscapes by dcorley ~ I've always been fascinated by POV's ability to create a fairly realistic and detailed landscape. I enjoy working to create realistic mountains, mesas, canyons, lakes, rivers.. all the exciting features that make any given image special and unique. I hope you enjoy the fruits of my labor.

From time to time I am given the opportunity to have one of my pictures published. This portion of my gallery is devoted to these instances. If you are interested in using one of my pictures, or if you'd like some custom work done, please feel free to contact me.

Ahhh, yes. Space: the final frontier. These are the voyages of my overactive imagination... I figure that man won't be visiting the stars (in person) in my lifetime, so I might as well create my own little universe to explore. I hope you like what I've 'discovered' lurking in there.

I realize that space is typically the first subject that new ray-tracers attempt. This does not, however, detract from the validity of the subject. Space is an endlessly fascinating place with a completely different set of rules from the everyday world. Careful thought and design can lead to not only a stunning scene, but also a better understanding of how the physical universe works. It can also spur the imaginations of those who normally wouldn't think about anything higher than themselves.

Every two months, the best and brightest stars of the ray-tracing community enter their artwork into the Internet Ray-Tracing Competition. The images are voted on by other ray-tracers and by the IRTC admin, then ranked according to overall averages.

This gallery is the place that I put all the images that just don't really fit anywhere else. There's no telling what you'll find in here.

This gallery is devoted to all those pictures that have remained popular throughout the years. Please note that all of these images have my original, and now incorrect, email address on them. The original targas for these images are no longer available. I'll try to re-render them someday, but I really don't know if I'll have time. Anyways, enjoy!

This is a collection of test renders, concept shots and other oddball images. I provide this merely as a way to peek into the creative process (or, at the very least, my creative process).

This album contains a number of old pencil sketches and doodles that I used to record my ideas for a number of images now in the gallery. I 'rediscovered' a bundle of my old drawings while cleaning out a closet.
