Yup, the capitals are most familiar indeed.

I remember seeing that before.  I tried having the media for light beams
turned up that high, but it didn't look quite right, especially since the
"windows" have no glass, so the indoors air has to match the outdoors air,
and it couldn't be that hazy outdoors.  It works great with his image of
Justinian's church though (which is a rather awesome rendering IMHO).

That's interesting and very good work...  Like me, he seems to give loops
heavy useage for the purpose of constructing with patterns of virtual
building blocks, kind of like building with virtual Lego.  POV-Ray makes
that so easy, and is why POV-Ray does well with Classical architecture.  His
details are generally so much more intricate, complete with egg & dart
trim.  If my machine had more RAM maybe...  View-based detail management to
save on RAM useage is a goal of mine.

Thanks for the links!
