Don't even ask! *g*
Indeed, this 320x240 AA0.3 pic took ages to render. To be honest: I ran a
pic overnight but had to stop it after 9h of trace. Then I reduced max trace
level and photons a bit, turned off iriscedence (and faked it)..... then it
was manageable. (But I misused my PC in the office which is a PIII 500MHz.
At home it wouldn't finish ever!)

> little harsh. Do you feel energized after your plant macro vacation?

Yes, indeed. Doing some transparent stuff clears the mind .-) If everything
goes right I have some spare time on the weekend. I'll use it to clean up
the macros a bit and start some new plants or other objects I want to use in
the final scene. Unfortunately the fern still needs some work....
