A render made (slowly) with MCPov (72 passes, in ~60 hours on 4 CPU - 
still running to remove some noise still present!). With thanks to Fidos 
for his help with the MCPov parameters for this scene.

The animal is from Daz, and I have used Sam Benge's luminous bloom code.

PS: "huis clos" is a French expression meaning literally "behind closed 
doors", and it seems to be translated in some context by "in camera"

Are you running multiple instances of MCPov? I see people say that they ran
MCPov on a quad cpu or similar, but since it's not multi-threaded, I've only
had luck by running multiple instances and averaging the results. I can't wait
for it to be updated to be multithreaded.

Yes, I am running four separate instances of MCPov.
