In my POV file:
"http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/fwcain/povray/walker.pov.txt"

// Sky?...Stars?...
#include "colors.inc"
#include "skies.inc"
#include "stars.inc"

}
}
sphere {
< 0 , 0 , 0 > , 10000
texture {
T_Cloud2

}
object {

are from "skies.inc", and "Starfield1" is from
"stars.inc", both of which are in POV-RAY's
"\include" sub-directory. I've been "experimenting". ;-)
Thanks,
Franklin

For night scenes, you could use a dark blue <0,0,0.4> or black <0,0,0>. (...) (24 years ago, 12-Dec-00, to lugnet.cad.ray)
