Hi, I am trying to simulate a gas sphere surrounded by water under a
micrscope, but am running into a few problems.

** Is POV Ray the sort of program best suited for this type of ray tracing
effort? **

Are there perhaps others ray trace programs more based on lens definition,
but with the possibility to identify an object. This seems to be an option
that is missing on programs like WinLens or OSLO.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,

What sort of problems are you having with Pov?

It might be an idea to post some of your code and/or images (images should go to
binaries.images), or give more specific info. as to what type of image you are
trying to produce.
