Seems I have to learn more about radiosity AND about english.

What is "looks quite flat" ?

About radiosity:
I thought radiosity is when there are elements around and their
subtile "light" refelcts and changes the colour of this element. Maybe I
missed something ?

I've planned to take a look on that after I have understood
a little bit more about the basic functions of POV. I am still learning on
that
and the photons.

However I am not planning to make things to look as "natural" as possible.
Otherwise I'd go to the market and buy an apple & take a picture with my
camera.

I want to make the perfect thing.
E.g. the perfect apple (that one is already done by Jaime Vives Piqueres
:-).
(I first could not believe that this is rendered ...then i took his source
and rendered it myself).

You can never see such an apple on the market, but you know: This is an
apple.
So this is the "raytracing-effect". You cannot clean your checkered floor
like that - its perfektly clean.
Noone has ever stepped on it.
That glas-ball ... there is no dust on it. But you know that is an glasball
and its perfekt..

Greetings & Thanks for the comments
