Comments? Questions?

The surface and the small spheres could use a little light, IMO.
Otherwise I like it. Even better than the last one you just posted.
Is the surface a paraboloid or something like it? How did you place the
small spheres on it?

Hmmm... yeah, I suppose they could. I'll play with the lighting a little more.

Ooooh... thanks!

The surface is just a large sphere. I used VRand_On_Sphere to select positions.
