lighten shadows

i am doing exterior site renderings with multiple buildings now, but i think this will pertain to all my renderings - interior, exterior, where ever

how do you get the shadows cast to be less intense.. (lighter, more transparent)

i have experimented with the sun settings, and the rendering settings
and it doesn't seem to make a difference...

some objects left in the shadows are lost in the image

Increase ambient light level.
Add extra manual sun object to fill shadows.

Get my book.

With the help of Dwight's book I finally managed to get this done within minutes...

Didn't know about the good results one can get with Lightworks.
