I agree, it would be nice to have POV generated sky. I looked around
for some examples of realistic looking clouds but decided to use real
ones for two reasons: 1. Better looking than the best I could do with
POV.  2. I am thinking of entering the image into Photographic Society of
America competitions and they're considering making it a requirement
that all entries be more than 50% photographic in origin by surface area.
My primary interest is in stereoscopic imaging, whether photo or rendered.
I like to combine the two, but the photographers don't like it because
much of it is computer rendered, and the computer graphics people
don't like that it has photographic elements. Me, I just like the 3D!
