Btw, all objects collect photons by default, so specifying
"photons { collect on }" for each one of them is just a waste of space
and resources. (And *specially* specifying it for each single object
in a union, when you could just specify it once for the entire union.)

  (Btw: How did you expect walls to reflect light when you have
specified "photons { reflection off }" for them? Not that it works
for non-reflecting surfaces anyways, but just curious.)
