Thank you, Michael, the time available is always very little, but
POV-Ray syntax helps to perform little variations with interesting results.
Regards,

Ah, I see. Sometimes an observer does not comprehend the original
intention of an artist at once. I think that is the reason why
catalogues of major art exhibitions are that think (I have two
catalogues of the documenta 8 and 9 gathering dust at my book shelf
since a lot of years). But I remember my first rendering. It was a
chrome sphere over checkered ground (green and white IIRC). An example
scene shipped with my Amiga 500 some years ago.
Best regards,
Michael

A great birthday present, and to think I didn't discover POV until 1993, a
wasted year ;-)
