I have now completed a full test render @ 1024x768 pixels, this took 21 1/2
hours.
I'm very satisfied with the results, and am now two days into rendering a 12.5
mega-pixel image. If the current rate of progress is anything to go by, it
should be finished in another week and a half.
Just one very small problem, while I am happy with the crackle patterned texture
for the street paving, it looks just a little _too_ irregular, as opposed to the
brick pattern, which looked to straight and clean cut.
Is there any pattern/macro/anything which can resemble a cobbled street or
something similar?
Many thanks everyone for the help,
D103

You might like to try the CobbledStreetMacro or CurvedPaving macros from
the PovRay library collections.

Also, take a look at the Irregular_Bricks_Ptrn() macro from textures.inc.
There is a description of the macro and it's parameters in the inc file,
just before the macro itself.

Since posting this, I have discovered that I am quite short-sighted, and now
that I have glasses, I have found that most of what I thought was too perfect
actually is just fine detail that I couldn't see naturally before.
So now there's nothing I can't fix with textures. :-)

good for you that you now have glasses! An alternative
solution would have been to use strong focal blur ;)

I know the feeling. Before you get your eyes tested, you don't even realize
that you are missing anything. Getting glasses is quite a pleasant shock.
