Oops! I forget it, sorry:
(vnormalize((lct/REF_WHITE)+(<COLOR_FILTER.gray,COLOR_FILTER.gray,COLOR
_FILTER.gray>-COLOR_FILTER))*EXPOSURE)
Then no local intensity involved now... only the temperature
correction and color balancing, and of course the global exposure.

Please! I only barely understand what I'm doing... any help, specially
on color theory, will be very welcomed.

Ah! This is an ancient technique... I use it so often that I even
honoured it with the name of my web site. :)

That's what I supposed. Anyhow, the SunColor returned isn't
supposed to have the sky color weighted in it?

Perhaps I've not explained it very well: How I can use it on my
scenes, having this dirty (and perhaps stupid) habit of using global
ambient set to 0?

Sorry, I wanted to write "decreasing overall luminosity and increasing
sun weight", of course... I must pay more attention to what I write. :(

Not really... only with the fiLuminous declaration, really.
Well, going back to skylighting...
