I just did a light render of a project I'm working on, and it's entirely dark. Do I need to place a light source within my sky dome to get the insides lit?

What I have is a flat plane with a house on it, covered (& sealed) with a dome I brought in from a third party program. I have thickened this hemisphere so it is basically an inverted bowl, and have placed it on the flat plane. I textured my clouds & trees onto the inside of the bowl.

So, have I basically sealed off all my rendered light? Or am I making some other error? It's really, really dark in there.

Thanks,

Dale
