Thank you, Tim! I googled a bit but I ain't sure, if three point lighting is
what i want in this scene.. I am a bit afraid, that more than one light
source would let the image look too artificial like most of the pictures I
saw as examples for this technique.

I guess I will use radiosity and just accept, that it renders 3 days.. ;-)
