I'm afraid to say this, but: No. The texture is what makes the 
difference. The default is pitch black, so unless you specify anything 
else that's exactly what you get.

You can change the default though, by specifying a texture in the 
#default statement.

Try

     texture { pigment { color rgb <1.0,1.0,1.0> } }

for starters.

(Maybe you also want to read the tutorial section of the Fine Manual ;-))
