Hi Bill,

It looks great! In addition to planters, perhaps some lamps here and there would
look nice. Since you're using UberPOV, maybe you could take advantage of that
feature which speeds up a render when using many light sources. (Do you know
what that feature is called, btw? Iirc, it pretty much stops evaluating a light
source after a certain distance...)
