I got inspired in the image
http://www.splutterfish.com/sf/Images/img_d03_top.jpg, and decided to try to
imitate it. I played all evening trying to duplicate the essence of that
picture, and this is what I got.

However, the shadows are getting on my nerves. I don't know why, but the
lights are symmetric (I've checked and changed things a million times), but
the shadows aren't. I'm using area lights. I decided to leave them like
this. I don't know if it is a bug....

Welll... what do you think? I got close enough? What am I missing? I'm going
to leave my computer rendering the same scene with much ambitious settings.
Let's see what we will get in the morning...

Did you try adding 'orient' or 'circular' to the light_source block?
