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.

People who grow bonsai trees also intend to give weird, twisted, or
bizarre shapes to those special mini trees.

Links would be a better option in povray.binaries.images than posting
photographs of plants.

That depends on whether the poster owns the copyright to the photographs
or at least has a license to distribute them (in which case posting them
in povray.binaries.images is somewhat ok, although we do prefer rendered
images), or whether he just copied them from arbitrary sources on the
internet without checking the terms of license (in which case he should
_recall the post IMMEDIATELY_[*]).
[* In German Thunderbird that would be done via the menu item
"Nachricht->Beitrag zurückziehen".]

I didn't even think of copyright reasons. Bad person that I am.
I was thinking more along the lines of. Everyone I know, knows what a
bonsai tree is. Why take up bandwidth and disk space?
I still remember the days of dial up. ;-)
