  Maybe something along the lines of:

camera { location <0, 0, -1> look_at z angle 60 }
light_source { <-5, 10, 0>*1000, 1 }

sky_sphere
{ pigment
  { gradient y color_map
    { [0 rgb <.8, .9, 1>]
      [.4 rgb z]
      [1 rgb z*.7]
    }
  }
}

plane // ground
{ y, -10
  pigment
  { granite color_map
    { [0 rgb <1, .75, .5>]
      [1 rgb <.9, .6, .4>]
    }
    scale 10
  }
}

plane // clouds
{ -y, -100
  pigment
  { bozo color_map
    { [0 rgb .7]
      [.3 rgb 1 filter .4]
      [.5 rgbf 1]
    }
    turbulence 1
    scale 100
  }
  finish { ambient 1 }
}

sphere
{ <0, -2, 70>, 8
  finish { reflection { .75, 1 } }
}

-- 
                                                          - Warp
