I love the image and it's special look.. and the spheres add lots of
interest!

I think youre on to something with the modified sample directions. Imagine a
patch to POV-Ray where you could use a different sample set for different
materials. Then you could have surfaces with varying degrees of glossiness
rendered with radiosity! It shouldn't be that difficult to implement such a
patch... :)
