 Not much to it, carved my dream score in it, took it to bathroom (darkest room in my home), lit a candle in it, took a flashlight with a diffuser (white towel) on it to compensate for the strong candle light, and fired off. Took a couple of shots, this one was the best.
cropped, curves adjustment, cloned bright spot from the stick that was holding the inside of a '0', resized, USM, and save for web.

Did not make use of extra rules for this one...
