It's *very* dark. Can't see much except the foreground. Three peeps standing
in very deep shadow.

Are those gray/white beams media beams? If so, they don't look much like it.
I would have expected this to render it something closer to 5 minutes. I
can't see where all the rendertime is going. Anything I'm missing perhaps?

All that aside, the lighting difference from foreground to background is
really extreme. Sorry to disappoint, but I get the impression there's a lit
foreground, then some dark and slightly translucent wall with some
white-streaks and three figures standing in shadow. Not much more.

Regards,
Tim
