Took three-quarters of an hour to render. 202 lines of povray code in 
all. This was more of an attempt to get used to lathe objects than a 
real photorealistic scene, but whatever- Everything's procedural (thank 
god for woods.inc) and uhhh... here's the image.

Hi

I like it, very atmospheric. Personally I think it would look better with
softer shadows, I think it would add more eerieness (if that is a word)

Nice Work

Dave

All right, here's an update. Slightly softer shadows... small 
modifications. Getting a little better, though the knight could use some 
help.

Very nice.  I like the haziness as it is now.  I like that only
the chess set is colored and rest is gray.

The thing that amazes me is that if you don't consider the chess
set there is only a gray gradient.  But when put the chess set
in, the same gradient becomes a 3D view of a "ground" fading into
the distance.  Sort of optical illusion.
