I am very new to POVRAY and I came across an interesting image when I was
creating a starfield plane in the Z direction. I populated it with a granite
color_map. I looked straight down the Z direction and got a weird result. Is
this me and I don't understand what I am doing or is this a strange render
bug? Shouldn't this be a seamless image with no distinguishing boundaries?
It is probably just me but I don't know how to explain it or correct it. I
am using Windows v3.1g. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your time.
Doug

        [5 rgb <0,2,5>]
        [.3 rgb 0]
       }
     }
   }
   finish {ambient 1}
 }
