Thank you very much for sharing your source with us. I rendered it @ 1600 
X 1200 AA.03 and it took almost 2H40M on my P4 2.7Ghz 1Ghz RDRAM. I'll 
append the stats @ the end of this msg. If you want, I can post the image 
here or send it to you via email since you said it takes more than 17 
hours to you for the render.

Ciao!

Mart

Ok, here is my best attempt in placing the camera. The horizon (which was 
actually a bit cluttered) is not on sight anymore, and I think that this 
keep the focus on the marbles and the blob.

I've compressed the .jpg file a little less than the previous image so the 
result is sharper (and the file is bigger ;-).

Happy povving.
