Are you going to eventually increase the number of windows on those houses?

good idea there...   >:D

I suspect they have neat atriums where people go if they do want some
sunlight.

You don't want to get all that desert sand into your bedroom and
kitchen, do you.

No. The houses are oriented inwards around an atrium. Streets are for 
moving around not for idly peep into you neighbours homes :-)

Thank you Paolo. I am not yet satisfied with the trees. POVtree is 
sometimes hard to control and get what you really want, but I am slowly 
getting there.

Yes, I tried POV-Tree, too, but don't know how to get what I want: a
main stem, curved towards one side, and branches getting out on the
other side. In fact, there is such a tree right in front of my home. :-)

Speaking of oddly shaped trees...

There used to be a a famous tree in my locality (Ventura, California) -- locally
famous only, of 
course.  It was a palm tree, the kind that has a very tall, bare trunk, with bushy
fronds only 
at the top.  It was damaged in a storm many years ago and the top broke and fell over
at a right 
angle.  It didn't die, but continued to grow -- upward.  So it resembled this rough
ascii 
representation:

    _\|/_
      |
  ----
  |
  |
  |
  |
  |
  |

Although this diagram doesn't show it, they did add a diagonal brace to support that
original 
right-angle bend.  The street where it was located became named Crooked Palm Drive. 
Unfortunately, it didn't survive a more recent storm which broke the top completely. 
But it was 
a well-known local sight for something like 50-60 years.
