Yes, you are right! I just discovered a moment ago that I forgot to mirror 
the function in the texture too!! :-(

That accounts for the loss of white horses. A new image is being brewed on 
the POV burner. I shall post it later this afternoon. From what I can 
already see, the white horses are back!! :-)

One reason why I did not want to move the ship (or the camera, for the time 
being) is that I like the light incidence on it. However, it is mainly 
because I want to play a bit with the functions and see what happens in the 
present context.

I don't know, presently about the foreground. There seems to be a large 
swale here. Later I shall lift the camera to see how it looks from above and 
if this is recurring elsewhere.
