Wow. I have tried the same, but even with crazy high settings (count 1600,
error_bound 0.001, etc) the best I have managed to render was a slightly
grayish patch behind my obstacles. (And long rendering times, of course.) Could
you perhaps show me the code, please? I have tried for quite long to achieve
these effects.

Still, my previous statement remains valid: there are things that povray cannot
render. And there are things that no rendering software can render (yet).

Hymyly.
And there was light.
