These are all --- AMAZING.
You really elevate ray-tracing to a fine craft.

Well done!

No doubt you are familiar with _Tim's Vermeer_:

So the obvious self-referential thing to do would be re-render them as very fine
paintings.   :)

No, I wasn't. Thanks for the link. Now I'm trying to view the whole 
movie somewhere.
But I'm familiar with the book by Philip Steadman that seems to have 
been Tim's inspiration - and - on a personal note - do not find 
convincing at all.

There are two cats in my house, too. But I'm often annoyed with them. Especially
one is too clingy.

They all have their own personality, no doubt. They are probably even 
more annoyed with us, stupid humans. ;-)

No, humans are clever than cats. I believe.
