If you're thinking about the image I think you're thinking about, then
you've got a problem. The effect you see is due to a bug in POV-Ray's
interpretation of normals (and bump_maps in particular iirc). I think
the bump_map has been fixed at some point of the 3.1 development, but
the general normal bug is still there, thus rendering any attemp to
reproduce the effect with a height_field imposible. I think you just
have to come up with the right bump_map and render it with, say, 3.0.
I might be wrong, though. Life shows I often am :)
