  Soft shadows

Hi all.

I'm rather new to POV (about 1 month) and I am trying to do soft shadows.
For that, I used the area_light option. This softens the shadows, increases 
the computation time, but generates a very "grainy" shadow.

Is there a trick to avoid it ?

To see the result of my first tries, look at :

(the texture on the wall is only a white pigment, no normal or other 
effects...)
