Would Like to Know how to Increase Light to Various Areas

Hey.  I will attach an image in which I would like to increase lighting to areas behind the models.  I made a point light and colored it blue so I could more readily see the effects.  Nothing.

So.  Today I bought the Iray Worlds Skydome which puts a Film-Cam in the scene and turns off (as best as I can figure) the Drawing of the Dome and various other inputs in the Evirnonment tab under Iray Render Settings.  I wondered if that might have something to do with things.

I am very happy with the purchase of the Iray Worlds Skydome.  I missed it somehow in my quest for a dome the included water and beautiful clouds, etc.  But.... Well help please if'n you can.

    A point light is going to have to be really strong to show in a scene set for HDR lighting. You also need to have the environment mode set to Dome and Scene in Render Settings.

    Well that certainly did it. Thanks. There is so much to discover in this program.  Lightwave3D too, especially Lightwave 3D 2018  I won't use your time to ask whay it was turned off in the first place.
