This is /not/ Islay although the scene was inspired by views from the 
island, so do not expect a shot of Lagavulin ;-)
Early wip, with height_field generated first by World Machine then by 
GeoControl. The cloudscape is a single df3 file created with Gilles 
Tran's MakeCloud macro. Parameters are chosen in such a way that not a 
single cloud is created but a scape of scattered clouds instead. This 
circumvents the danger of container artefacts that Gilles warns about 
when using several df3 containers scattered over the sky.

Were you thinking of me there? Whatever, I don't accept shots. A
gentleman's measure would be more to the point. Sláinte!

Very well, sir. Would you like your thimble in English or Scottish measure?

He must be going doolally. He knows that I cannot abide the smell of 
Island or Highland whisky.
Do let me know if he starts whimpering, "Precious. My Precious", again.
