I wanted to turn down the ambient light level but somehow could not figure it out. So I tried reducing the power on each point light instead. Still turned out brighter than I would have liked. To turn down the ambient light I did: Atmosphere Editor -> Light Tab -> Global Lighting and Adjustments -> and changed it from 50% to 25%. Much to my surprise, when I went back to render everything got MUCH brighter instead of darker. Looked like she was walking into a supernova. So I punted and fiddled with each candle instead, but as I said, still have a bit too much light. I'll post the finished project in a bit. jon
