I took this photo in the corner of my room. Once again I added the wood wallpaper to make it look older. I printed out a song got a quill and ink and used a candlestick with lit candles. I also had a spotlight shining on the paper to accent it more however I did have the spotlight very low so not to give to much away from the light given from the candles. I just wanted the letter and quill lit up more if I didn't have the spotlight you couldn't see the paper at all. I could have had it more lit up but I did want to go for that more older feel and time for this photo.

if you were to do anything differently, I'd suggest painting the letter with a flashlight to anchor the viewer on it. Right now, the candles steal the show.
I don't care for the overly yellow color cast (I just checked how it would look without that and found it way better), but I like the subject and the composition. Nice little setup.
looks very old fashion. i love the way the glow of the candle isn't solid, there is some around it. you notice all the little things like the rose print of the table cloth and how the feather leans to the right which fills more space. love the photograph.
