	Render the two images as usual.  Then make a
second .pov script to combine the images.
	Use an orthographic camera.  Use an average
pigment of two image maps and set ambient to 2 to
compensate for the dimming you'll get.
	It would be best to make this render the same
height and width as the input images and use no AA.
You *might* need to tweak the assumed_gamma setting.

	while it is intended to be a 3d rendering
package, povray makes a dandy 2d image processor!
