Ha! It is one of those things I don't like in POV-Tree but which 
simulates strong winds in this case. I have difficulty in controlling 
the angles within the hierarchy of branches to twigs. Somehow, POV-Tree 
always does something different from what I expect, and then the leaf 
bunches do their own thing :-(

The flatness should be diminished with a proper use of normals. That 
should apply as well for Arbaro. As far as POV-Tree is concerned, I 
should delve a little more into uv_mapping...
