You'd do better to have a JPG instead of BMP to show the situation. I waited 2 minutes
to finally get to see nothing but source code of the image for some reason (no, not
source of the pov file either but apparently the image source).
I'm guessing however it must be perspective camera related. See if the same thing
happens with a narrower field, 'angle 30' or less for example. You currently have the
default, meaning approximately 'angle 67'.
