How much ? [:D]
What locations ? [:O]
Is it a secret story ? [:))]

Mixing the two would be better, but I don't see the articifial lighting inside... [:((]

No secret: just add to the plan a big source light very far from home.

At home, we call this: a SUN ! [:))] [:))] [:))]

Nobody does not answer to my first two questions... [:((]

Here is an image showing outside lighting to enhance the sunlight



In this example the smaller "daylight" sources are set to 70% and the larger to 80%

The actual positionimg and power are a matter of trial and error.
