Trouble with Rotate

Hi there!

 

I am having trouble with Rotate.

Here is the problem:

I have a Graphics3D object called circ1 (obviously a circle in 3D space).

 

r=1;q=p/4;

circ1=ParametricPlot3D[{r*Sin[q]*Cos[f],r*Sin[q]*Sin[f],r*Cos[q]},{f,0,2 p}]

 

Now I want to rotate it by some angle about the vector eje={1,0,0} or
whatever vector.

 

y=p/4;eje={1,0,0};p={0,0,0};

Graphics3D[Rotate[circ1,y,eje]]

 

What I get is the message "Rotate is not a Graphics3D primitive or
Directive" (??)

 

Any help will be appreciated.

 

BTW, where dis the command ShadowPlot go?

 

Thanks

 

Sergio Terrazas
