Hi folks,

I've been off the groups for a few months on account of my PC being on a 
boat crossing the atlantic (moved back home to England). But anyway, here's 
some stuff I've been working on this week for Paul Bourke's next short code 
contest (as mentioned on pov.general and his website: 
http://local.wasp.uwa.edu.au/~pbourke/rendering/scc4/ )

The dawn scene is basically finished, and it's entire source code is:

#local 
p=function{pattern{granite}}isosurface{function{y-.3+p(x/10,9,z/10)}contained_by{box{-9,9}}}light_source{<3,.5,8>,1}media{scattering{2,<3,2,1>/9}emission<.3,.4,1>density{function{.1/(y+1)}}}sphere{0,1pigment{granite

poly_wave 4}scale-7*y+9hollow}


The grassy scene's currently a bit too long, and has a boring sky:

light_source{99,.8-z/2}background{<.7,.8,.9>}#macro 
R(V)vturbulence(2,.5,6,V)#end#local i=0;#while(i<16384)#local 
p=mod(i,128)*(z-x)+(z+x)*i/128;#local 
p=p+R(p/70)*20;cone{p-5*y,.2,p+R(p/9)*5-3*x/*+2*z*/,0pigment{rgb 
y*2+z}}sphere{p-y*9,4pigment{rgb.9+z}}#local i=i+1;#end

Any suggestions on how I can make those a few bytes shorter?
