I never use ambient light in Vue...in my view, it creates flat and insipid images without definition.

I will always use fill lights if I need to lighten dark areas. Actually, if you understand how light works in the real world and transfer that into how you create lights in a scene, then sometimes that is the only way to get what you want...and can be a life saver if you are doing animations or large prints.
In fact this is where Infinite is playing to one of its strengths; the fact you can exclude objects from light sources...it make radiosity/GI faking sooooooo much easier.

Cheers
