They are real objects with a tricky texture. All honor goes to Gilles.

They are not illuminated at all, the highlights are part of the texture.
They all point to the right, that's why they don't take the sun into
consideration. The code could develop in this aspect.

Thanks! Everything except the water is borrowed "plug-ins", and the
heightfield isn't that good, but since it renders in 5 minutes I think it's
useful in animation, and shows that POV can also do nice things fast.
