You may specify the no_shadow keyword in an object to make
that object cast no shadow. This is useful for special effects and for
creating the illusion that a light source actually is visible. This keyword
was necessary in earlier versions of POV-Ray which did not have the
looks_like statement. Now it is useful for creating things like laser
beams or other unreal effects. During test rendering it speeds things up if
no_shadow is applied.
Simply attach the keyword as follows:
object {
My_Thing
no_shadow
}
