I, as a beginner i read many things about lights and shadows to get a realistic render of interior houses. I have played with many settings but my shadow still very dark! How could i do to fix that without to change min and max brightness in post process volume? is the koala method is the best way to get realistic light inside? i ask that because i wanna make an exterior visit too. What i am looking for, is a bright interior realistic. Thank you 🙂 ![94698-capture9.jpg](https://d3kjluh73b9h9o.cloudfront.net/original/4X/a/7/9/a79912f208264cbe5fd0b78630908506a92ad6f3.jpeg) ---
