In the most recent release of my povwriter library I provide an alternative sphere primitive (to the processing default) that is better suited to ray tracing. See usage example in my blog.
NB: to use the library you will also need to download the template files in the resources zip. For anyone who has version 0.57 resources there is no need to download them as they are unchanged (I just renamed them to keep them in step with the release). I'm still waiting for someone to tell me whether the library works on the Mac.

As a proof of concept I have created a short video using PovRAY to generate a sequence of images that I have stitched together using ffmpeg (thus a possible alternative to sunflow for ray traced animations). This is nothing new for PovRAY aficiondos that I'm not, but shows how by isolating the processing sketch elements, these can readily be animated within the PovRAY scene. Follow the link above to my blog for the video and the method I used to create it.
