Cool, thanks for your additional info :-)

You are right, when activating gamma, and setting it to the right value, it makes a huge difference.
I experimented with rocks where displacement mapping was applied. Not only are the areas which are in the shadow more natural looking, but also, as you said earlier, it results in a much nicer transition between shadow and light.

I will post an example in the "Does anybody know..."thread.

Great!
