I was looking at this, when I had an idea you'll probably hate... <grin>

If it were possible to alter Gilles' macro to create a 'grass' of tree 
objects, then you could have a more useful sense of scale, with the large 
tree in the centre of the dome representing the 'tree of life' from 
various mythologies.

Of course it would be almost impossible to tell that the 'grass' was 
actually a forest canopy at the size it would render.

Oh, and I really like the image BTW, it reminds me of various console 
RPG's set in post apocalyptic worlds where some technologies are still 
functioning.

Bye for now,
