 The Lighting Render Element stores direct lighting information from lights in the scene and materials as lit by the lighting. This render element can be used to brighten, lessen, or tint the direct lighting in a composite.

The VRayLighting render element is the same as VRayRawLighting multiplied by VrayDiffuseFilter. VRayLighting is provided as a convenience to the compositor.

This render element can be used to enhance the direct lighting in a scene after it is already rendered. See the example.
