Here's a balls-on-plane image I used to fiddle with some blurred reflection
stuff, the aim being to give the balls some apparent weight, like ball
bearings or something rather than the common 'plasticky' mirror finish.
Still needs some work but looks OK I think.  The blurring is done with the
common small-normals trick, but I spent some time playing with the
reflective exponent to get the unusually stark reflections.
