If it can help - look at the:
http://news.povray.org/40eq4uc2i1nmgv4tkq9cdhlb1h4cqrofof%404ax.com
I used here four sphere_sweeps and plane. If it can help here is output of
this image. Other types of objects listed in statistic are becouse of trace()
used in placing sphere_sweeps:
Warning: This rendering uses the following experimental feature(s): Spline,
Radiosity. The design and implementation of these features is likely to change
in future versions of POV-Ray. Full backward compatibility with the current
implementation is NOT guaranteed.
Creating bounding slabs.
