This is a picture I did not too long ago, exploring the
possibilities of povray macros (ex, for tiling of the dome, for
making towers). This is the only picture where I've even
gotten a heightfield to look good.

The dome tiling looks good, but i don't really like the red planet's color.
BTW, what program did you use to generate the heightfield ?

Pretty neat. However, a glow around the lights with no atmosphere? Plus
they are washed out looking. And maybe the shadows should have been nearly
black. Or is that a misconception?
The moon surface looks good, and I like the planet. Some interaction
between ground and domes might make them seem less separated.

That was my first thought...but look at the planet this moon is
orbiting: a gas giant, certainly not Earth. Maybe this moon does have an
atmosphere.

But then the sky should not be totally black (at least some color near the
horizon if it's only a thin atmosphere).

Not at night. :-)
Or even at daytime, if the atmosphere is thin, sunlight is dim, and the
planetoid is small. The atmospheric scattering may only be visible when
looking nearly directly at the sun or other light source.
And besides, maybe a spacecraft just landed and the dust is still
settling, and that is what causes the halos.
Anyway, I would like to know how the glow effect was done...emitting
media spheres? Or scattering media? Or has someone else added Marcos
Fajardo's glowing light sources patch to a newer version of POV?

This looks gook, reminds me of Frontier Elite II.

You're totally right. I *never* thought about that. I just
added the glow because it looked neat.

If you mean dim when you say "Washed out", then I'll agree. I
really have difficulty with media to work ( BTW I use standard povray,
as I port my pov code between Amiga & Windows versions).
