Very nice!  I don't see any mischievous dark spots, myself.  I would suggest
that the realism could be quite improved if you used radiosity and turned off
ambient lighting (as has already been suggested).  Just be prepared for 10x the
render time, but it'll be worth it.

For outdoor scenes, I usually boost the sunlight strength to 3 or beyond (rgb
<1,.9,.5>*3).  Also, try adding double_illuminate to your leaf texture.

I look forward to your next post!
