I think it would require several further "big improvements" before the
animation would be interchangeable with a real video clip of an
explosion. However, I'm approaching the limit for how far I can reach
with regard to realism. My particle system, my creativity, my
understanding of explosions, POV-Ray's features etc. only get me so far
and they all have their limits...

"Indefinable" is an evil word. ;)

I disagree on that one...

Anyway, thanks for the feedback. :)
