What app are you using? There are heaps of lighting tutorials around, but it obviously depends on what app you want to do it in.
Here is a great general knowledge tute on lighting: [url]http://www.warpedspace.org/lightingT/part1.htm[/url]
Reading through that should reveal an answer (or at least improve you knowledge of lighting - very important)

A suppose a simple way would be to create a fog effect and throw some ray tracing directional lights into the scene. I haven?t tried it, so I'm not sure. But it sounds logical.

Good luck. Let us know how you go [:)]
