This image was taken inside the same pillbox as seen in this photo here:
http://www.pbase.com/steve_sharp/image/104582501 but on a much stormier
winter's night with the wind whistling through the open windows, occasionally
blowing out the candles that I had thoughtfully brought along! (I know, most
people take towels and suncream to the beach; I like to be different :) The
lighting in this comes from half a dozen candles and some battery-powered
blue LED lights, and hasn't been enhanced in photoshop, the blue and the
yellows, when mixed, gave a lovely purple colour. This pillbox lies a mile's
arduous walk over soft shingle from the nearest access, and so felt pretty
remote on a winter's night!

Wow, just amazing light. Definitely worth the work you put in to create this shot (at least for me, sitting in my warm apartment ;o)
