What ho chaps

Here's my final (for now) take on Escher's Double Planetoid. Changes since
the last post (some time ago now) are not massive but make a difference -
I've added a background, and people wandering the balconies. The second
image is an attempt to portray what the whole entity might look like if it
wandered into a raincloud. Both images rendered almost prohibitively slowly
on my ailing ~1GHz office machine (about 5 days solid for the daylight
version and just over 6 weeks for the overcast version, rendering nights
and weekends only), so I shall have to find some more processing power if I
want to take this further - I've got 3 fisheye views from the balconies set
up ready to go as well.

I've been staring at this WIP for so long that I honestly can't tell if it
looks good any more! :)

Anyway, as always, comments and suggestions welcome.

Bill
