I was just surprised by the difference in time between the one rendered with
radiosity and the one without :)

And yes, still claim to be just a beginner. Installed Blender during Christmas
holidays, and in the beginning of January I decided to install POV-Ray as well.
This scene hasn't been coded in POV-Ray, that I would never (probably) be able
to do as programming (not even the easy languages) is far from my best quality
:)

But I will have a look into the coding later on, as it seems you can create some
really crazy stuff (abstract 3D) using it.
