Duplicating reflected light from picuture

Hello,


I have a photo that was taken from a fixed camera looking through a vacuum viewport. Under normal conditions the camera would see nothing, or the image would be black.


In this case I have a photo with a bright spot. We have the entire assembly modeled in Pro-e and I have placed the camera to simulate the line of site. The reflected light is bouncing off a curved polished component. To complicate things, there is a second polished component a few inches opposite the first but in not in the picture. I have been tasked to determine where the arc occured that generated the light.


I have introduced lights and rendered in other cad packages but not in Pro-e. Any ideas?
