Let eps be small enough. I usually use

   #declare eps = 1e4;

Apply the gray picture as a texture to a plane and add:

   pigment_map {
     [0 rgbt <0,0,0,1-eps>]
     [1 rgbt <1,1,1,1-eps>]
   }
   finish {ambient 1/eps}

There should be a way to do that without the pigment_map,
but I am unsure enough about above syntax. Hope the idea
made it through, though...
