For grass I used the advanced painter script. You can see first I made the vray proxy (grass) and then opened advanced painter script and selected it. I wanted to paint with it so I selected the paint and scattered the grass. It's important to pay attention and to make 3d max orientation higher, like 90.

I used an irradiance map and the light cache. My PC is based on core i7 930 and rendering time was about 1 hour.

I recommend to use color correction in the frame buffer window. This way You can control all curves, shadows and exposure.

Post work
I added volumetric light for my scene in PhotoShop. This is how I created it.
1. Create a new layer, fill it with dark color
2. Change opacity and create long rectangles
3. Go to filter > blur > motion blur and change the angle of them
4. Change the layer mode to screen and set the opacity to 25 %
5. Use eraser tool to remove parts that are not necesarry
