Maybe i should clarify that i am not trying to make this perfectly 
realistic - i know very well that for extreme realism you have to better 
serve the typical expectations/cliches someone looking at the image will 
have in mind for this kind of scene.  I am still considering some 
changes about the clouds but more to make them look unusual and 
contrasting than to make them harmonize better with the scenery.

Note there is a lot of 'media off-camera' in this scene.

Christoph,
Personally, I think this is pretty amazing all round.
Are the faces in the cliffs deliberate, or am I just seeing things?

Isn't this just a photograph? That's what it looks like to me... If
that's POV-Ray, then you must be from a different planet to the rest of
us, because that's just flipping AMAZING! 8-0
