Slow, but worth it, can be good too.  The jpg compression mucks this up
somewhat but it looks like a nice render.  I've got to complain about the
whites not being white enough though.  That's always a personal viewpoint it
seems anyhow, where I would prefer a very saturated white others might not.
That's why I almost always use a total of rgb 1.5 for lighting or at least a
rgb 1.5 for pigments (total red green blue in various proportions also)
because less never seems to fill the "spectrum" up.
