raise light source brightness and adjust material properties accordingly 
and you will get higher contrast radiosity results.  A washed-out 
appearance is often a result of using unrealistically low lighting levels.

:-)

Obviously you can do that with MegaPOV's post processing patch.  For 
simple brightness/contrast adjustments you can also use the tone mapping 
patch (see macro Brightness_Contrast() in tone_mapping.inc - much faster 
than with the post processing feature).

Note it is of course often more convenient to render to a plain, not 
adjusted image and do the post processing afterwards.
