Very, very beautiful! Especially the lighting and the colored shadows. I tried
something similar with a simple glass sphere and photons a few weeks ago, but
the shadow was much too dark. Maybe the "count" was too low. I'm not so
experienced with glass like objects, because I have frustrating results most of
the time and therefore don't really dare to raytrace them often ...
But now with this proof, that they can look really good, I will try again
sometime in the future.
