Here is the scene with improved (I think) light blooming, and some tweaked brass
colors.  The new brass colors are:

For assumed_gamma 1:
  Warm brass    rgbft CHSV2RGB (<35, 0.88, 0.99>)
  Medium brass  rgbft CHSV2RGB (<38, 0.78, 0.99>)
  Yellow brass  rgbft CHSV2RGB (<47, 0.68, 0.91>)

For any other assumed_gamma:
  Warm brass    srgb <0.9956, 0.8135, 0.3793>
  Medium brass  srgb <0.9956, 0.8580, 0.5040>
  Yellow brass  srgb <0.9593, 0.8942, 0.5760>
