You mean like raise light_sources intensity (e.g. rgb*2) and lower the
values of the materials (like rgb*0.5)? The main light_source I'm using is
set to rgb 3, but maybe I have to raise it a little more and lower the
values of the other materials. Maybe lowering the diffuse-value would
suffice... I'll experiment. Thanks for the suggestions.

Yeah. I had been thinking about using POV-Ray itself to script a small set
of macros which'll load an image and fiddle with the contrast and stuff
using functions and such. But I like a more direct solution better.
