You might be right, but in fact I'm not so much interested in 'Realism' 
(and I do not mean photo-realistic rendering here) but more in 
'Romanticism'. You may want to read my reply to Jim for more about that.

Yes. For a final render I will definitely use scattering media and also 
radiosity (currently there is just a fill light at the camera position 
to fake some ambient light). Some test renderings have already shown 
that this will look really good - but also will be incredible slow.
So before actually using media and radiosity I want to make sure that 
everything else is 'right'.
