That is a truly beautiful looking scene there, mate.
Very peaceful.

You should be well proud of it.

Thanks again gents  :)

Took a couple of 'mood' shots with the internal lights in. Looks better in real life of course but you get the idea.




It's warmer in reality and the shoji door isn't stuck in yet  :)

cheers

Pink lights? It's a samurai disco? Or on the edge of the red light district?

Judging by recent posts, I think Mr Bibbly's favourite colours are tending towards cheery blossom pink and shades of lavender.

I'm beginning to suspect he has branched out of his day job into interior design. Either that or he's doing a DIY restoration project for an 1980s era bordello.  :D

On a more serious note - does that roof meet code? Runoff will pool against the gable we can't see from this angle.

For the "after dark" points, you might want to dim the light a bit, otherwise it's great

Ohhhhh! Lights!!

You could add to it. A couple of spotlights inside, some downlighters in the sawfit outside and maybe a few solar powered lights along the driveway! Oh lights! Lights! Lights!

How are you powering your lights? Batteries?

Thanks chaps  :)

Nothing wrong with interior design (as long as you get the colour balance right  ;) )

On a more serious note - does that roof meet code? Runoff will pool against the gable we can't see from this angle.

Which bit? And the lights are a lot warmer in reality  ;D

How are you powering your lights? Batteries?

It's a tiny little battery tea light (waterproof as well). I inked it with a few coats of some orange ink to get rid of the whiteness (it' not pink in reality  ;D )




cheers
