Very nice, Ken.

Isn't POV wonderful for doing things like this? I don't have the skill / patience /
inclination to model real world objects, so these abstract shapes appeal to me.

These are interesting. Perhaps a quiz question: how many cones, spheres,
boxes and torii are in the image?

There may be thousands of spheres inside each one that we'll never know about.

Just to keep your propellers spinning the attached image uses the same number
of objects, maybe even one less object (can't remember righ now), in a slightly
different process. Sorry about the icky colors Mr.jpg strikes again.

Ken,
how many of these do you have?
I imagine a big wall with perfectly framed A4-size prints with these
objects, hunderds of them. Would look great.

  I didn't do them for fun although the symetery and geometric shape
of them facinates me.

  I decided one day some time ago that if I was going to become skilled
with this program it was time to go back to the very beginning and learn
all of the different things one can do with simple primitives. These last
two images are a result of planned experiments with the cone object. I
have similar files for the box, sphere, cylinder, disc, and torus objects
as well. Cones are really more versitle than I would have ever guessed
had I not spent time learning to control their position, size, and general
behaviour.

  The objects in the first image were created from just 4 cones and one
box or sphere. In the second image they are made from four cones only !!!
See if you can figure out how I accomplished that little trick.

Hint: CSG
