Thanks, Steve.
I haven't been doing much in pov except playing with mega0.5.
I posted this to get my a** in gear.
It's a pretty big project and the camera angle I'm aiming for is
from the inside with the light coming thru the 'hole at the top'
(sorry for my arch.tech. talk).
I believe the CA can be contacted at:
cam### [at] inmydreamsorg
I actually got an answer...once.

Your message prompted me to go and have a good look around the net
for a photo of the inside of the Metropolitan Cathedral of Liverpool
which has a stained glass circular tower, the glass goes through all
colours of the rainbow gradually so as the sun moves around the
colour of the light inside changes, it's a beautiful sight to behold.
Alass I couldn't find any images, but I'll keep my eyes opn and if
I find one (taken on the inside) I'll post it here.

Wow, sounds very beautiful and tre cool. Certainly not the
'typical' American image of what is 'Liverpudlian'.

It might be necessary to get in contact with the Liverpool 'chamber
of commerce', but maybe they aren't very 'wired' as yet.
Here's a 1750 painting by some Italian dude of what I'm going for.
I've got the coffers (arch.tech.talk) down, but have found getting
the angle extremely difficult. Maybe it's the magic/lie of painting.

It's going to be very difficult getting your lighting right here, you'll
probably have to use either a lot of ambient (don't do it), or a lot of
area lights, though point lights and fade_povew (or whatever it is),
could possibly be the solution.

Someday, if I ever learn the necessary math, I'd like to design a
coffer-dome based on a tessellation of the hyperbolic plane.
At
http://www.superliminal.com/geometry/hypertes/HyperbolicTesselations.html,
Some of these consist of straight lines running throughout. Project one
of these stereographically to the hemisphere, and you get a set of
arches that meet the plane at a right angle.
Unfortunately, my favorite pattern -- that shown by the blue lines in
http://www.superliminal.com/geometry/hypertes/4_5_trunc0_512x512.gif --
leaves a much bigger hole than the Pantheon analogy allows.

Very cool stuff.
Similar to Circle Packing done in PostScript.
(Unfortunately the Professor who did this work is no longer on
line, last I checked.)
