I think I like this set up a bit better ... I see tho that I need to do 
some work on the ceiling in the background structure. The radiosity is 
reaching a bit to far back into the room, it needs to be a bit darker to 
make it appear deeper that it really is. The wall's look OK because it's 
pigment is only 20% of the outside color, maybe a gradient on the 
ceiling will get me where I want it to be. I also found a couple of 
light leaks that were causing some hot spots.
