Actually this is a picture made with Terragen.
Not that there's any prohibition about using a Terragen-generated bitmap of
clouds in Povray because it's fast, nice and easy.
Volumetric clouds are not easy to create directly in Povray but have other
advantages (see the stacks method by Jaime Vives Piqueres here
