Lily in the gloaming.

My grandmother and I used to sit in the early morning gloaming and watch her flowers. This lily reminded me of her so I put it in her sugar server and tried to add lighting that would reflect that feeling of the gloaming. As always, feel free on how I could improve.

Then I got addicted and spent the next hour going nuts. Gramma Cat is probably looking down on me and rolling her eyes wondering why I'm inside taking pictures when I could be weeding!

I love the feel of the first one! Those tones are really really nice!

ETA: Your avatar is totally creeping me out. Did you scare Mr. Leighthal with the ladies when he got back from his trip? I missed follow up on that post.

Thanks, I ended up using incense to get the gloaming right.
Mr. Leighthal arrived home at 2:30 am. He was on best husband award mode, sleeping on couch as not to wake his wife. Ruined the perfect setup!!
