I have just played a little bit with a different ambient and modified light 
sources, as it was quite new to me that this is possible. Anyway ... here's a 
result:

I'm getting *much* better results from the Dark Side of the Moon, now. 
However, at the expense of the feeling for depth in the scene. So turning a 
scene model "in your hand" with stationary light sources would be still an 
awesome extension, but for now I'm quite happy with the enhanced ambient light 
intensity.
