Hi William,

scene took about 5 days to render with 8000*4500 pixels.
This worked because I divided the job in three parts - the clouds, a render with
low radiosity settings (clouds as image_map) and a part render of the head with
high radiosity settitngs.

The clouds are df3 media ones by Gilles Tran - see
http://www.oyonale.com/modeles.php?lang=en&page=36 . He also presented there a
brief summary of the available methods to create clouds in POV-Ray.
My only contribution are extreme coloring and a high Intervals value (7 instead
of 2-5).

I put a reduced scene file to pbs-f.

Norbert
