Back to Stefan's Ray-tracing images page

This is my favorite collection of POV-Ray images made by other people.

These beautiful and advanced images and pov-files come as sample (demo) files with POV-Ray 3.0 or newer.

Important note. These files are copy righted work. See the readme file below.

For copy right reasons the images here are presented only in low resolution (400 x 300 pixels).

Pov-files for POV-Ray 3.1 and 3.6 (for Linux and Unix) to make the images below are now available here:

• favpov.tar.gz (87 kB, version 1.01, latest update: 2007-08-13)

• readme.txt (Readme file including references and a copy right note, version 1.01, latest update: 2007-08-13)

New! Superb images made by Friedrich Lohmüller. Pov-files for these images can be downloaded from
his and Andrea's fantastic home page found here. The images are slightly modified by the author.
