#include "colors.inc"

  #declare screen_width = 854;
  #declare screen_heigth = 391;
  #declare camera_right = x*screen_width/screen_heigth;

  camera {location <10,31,1> look_at <524,0,440-524> angle 30 right
camera_right}

  sky_sphere {
    pigment {
      gradient y
      color_map {
        [(1-cos(radians( 90.0)))/2 color 5*1.2*<238,2,255>/256]
        [(1-cos(radians( 90.3)))/2 color 5*1.1*<3,5,112>/256]
        [(1-cos(radians( 91.5)))/2 color Black]
      }
      scale 2
      translate -1
    }
  }

  fog {
    distance 500
    color rgbt<0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.2>
  }

  cone {<0,0,0>, 1, <0,50,0>, 0 pigment { rgbt 1 } hollow scale 40 translate
<2000,0,0>}

If I take the fog away all looks good but WHY does the fog make my hollow
transparent cone visible?  Better yet how do I keep it from making my
transparent cone visible?

Thanks,
Carl
