You seem to be talking about forwards ray-tracing where rays act just like
streams of photons.
POV-Ray does reverse/backwards ray-tracing where since you are only
interested in light that hits the camera you trace the path of light hitting
the cameras back to its origin so that you may determine the colour of the
ray as it hits the camera.
