Just like in real life, put them a long way away.

Hope this helps, but sometimes when you're bogged down in code
you miss the obvious answer.

    That intervention of Steve reminded me of a question to which I've
never found an answer in my reading of the docs, web tutorial or the
prose of the good POVists people, here or at nzn.fr.3D.pov. What are
the largest and the smallest number to use in a location vector ?
