You could try switching to bozo, which produces similiar results but without
the (apparent) bug. Incidentally, and I could easily be wrong, but the "odd"
area on the left is, I think, what you should get scaling the bumps this
small - the smoother area is the bug (this is assuming that bozo scale 0.025
is similiar to bumps scale 0.025).

As noted, please do not post images in this group - there is a faq in
povray.announce.faq (and with a scene this simple, an image is probably not
required since it only takes a few seconds to render).

BTW assuming you're new here, welcome aboard!
