The "orientation=[70,0]" trick does not really project anything (rotate
that plot with the mouse!).
Instead, visit the Maple Application Center (http://www.mapleapps.com),
enter contour as the search term, and take a look at the "Contourplot in
3D space" worksheet. The dropshadowplot procedure expects an expression
as its first argument, but could be adapted to your needs.
It also demonstrates how to combine graphs using the display command.
