Fractal Death Valley - An Amazing Box Platinum landscape

[schizo]

Hi Fractalists,

follow me into the dark edges of Death Valley. Only the lost and wandering souls give some light.  

Simply an Amazing Box Platinum with some rotation creates this impressive landscape.
First flight path was found very fast, but fine tuning the whole animation (especially the incoming lights) took a lot of time and resulted into the most savefiles I ever had and an animation with 71 keyframes and 4380 frames.

To enjoy the great music by Elegy and for deeper inspection of the details I added a slideshow with enhanced frames from the animation before.

Turn on HD and enjoy fullscreen!

A stereo version will follow soon. It took about 22 days to render this stereo animation.

Thank you very much mclarekin, cK and bib - valuable words from valuable person

As promised here comes the stereo version of the Fractal Death Valley in HD 720p. Render time 22 days!
The grid / lightning like structures creates a good 3D effect. Also the appearing lights fly directly in your head 

Still rendered with "Common" lense, but distortion is ok.

Enjoy your ride.
