I'm working on an indoor scene of a door/frame and wall.
Later I'll reuse the basic stage and change the style of door/frame.

This is the first time I'm useing Lightsys, but so far not for pigments.
The intended audience is for a glossy trade magazine/handout.
The original file is 2400x1800, resized for posting.

Suggestions for makeing it better?

   Just reduce a little the overall brightness. And perhaps the inside 
frame seems like a bit too prominent... looks great otherwise.

I used the "demo_indoor1.pov" demo scene from Lightsys.
Three Halogen lights in the hallway with the camera. One fluorescent light in
the room behing the door.
From the demo scene:
// Brightness control (global light multiplier):
#declare Lightsys_Brightness=1/6; // adjust for a brighter/dimmer image
Is this the brightness your referring to?

The door has a window that sticks out of the door on either side. This is needed
to reach the desired sound attenuation rateing.

The wall has a noticeable grain, approximately 45 degrees, even at this size
picture. I would like not to have this grain.

I'm useing:
global_settings{ noise_generator 3}

pigment {
  agate
  agate_turb 0.500
  color_map {
    [0.000 rgbft <0.851,0.745,0.502,0.000,0.000>]
    [0.872 rgbft <0.851,0.745,0.502,0.000,0.000>]
    [1.000 rgbft <0.804,0.671,0.353,0.000,0.000>]
  }

}

normal {
  agate, 0.250
  agate_turb 0.500
}

Is this just a limitation of agate?
Should I use an average of more than one?
Help.
