Here we are, it is time for the 12th entry for surviving November 2025. Capturing the muted color and round shape of this light is kind of a fun challenge, bringing that cozy vibe even on the chilliest days. The soft glow that comes from this fixture creates a welcoming atmosphere, turning any space into a comfy hangout, perfect for those laid-back moments inside, snuggled up in blankets with a good book or a warm drink in hand. Mood light for the dark months not only brightens things up but also lifts our spirits, helping us find a little beauty in the gray and gloom of the season.
November begins, and we’ll keep this year rolling forward. The theme is ’round’, and you can interpret it any way you like. It can be a photograph, a painting, a drawing, a new or old picture, anything. Hopefully, it has ‘that certain something’.

An interesting light
Mielenkiintoinen valo
yes, mood setting light
What a beautifully written and heartwarming reflection! 🌟 Your words capture the quiet poetry of November — that balance between chill and comfort, shadow and glow. The way you describe the round light fixture as both a visual and emotional centerpiece is lovely; it’s not just an object but a mood, a gentle companion through the darker days.
Thanks Verma, I do like the time you spend wording your thoughtful comments
Kuvissasi on se paras juttu syksyssä. Lämpimät valot, kynttilät antamaan pieniä valopisteitä hämärään.
kynttilä – olisiko minulla pyöreää sellaista…

en ollut huomannut ja tämä oli mennyt SPAM kansioon. Kiitos
You are photographing the prettiest rounds!
I am trying Lois, thx!
Beautiful light – my daughter is going to be keen to begin decorating now that its after Nov 11!
We only start decorating Xmas in December, but we do put some lights outside
This is such a beautiful image but, in my part of the world, I don’t need to survive November, Ritva. So far it has been pure joy! But I still love the images, and actually saw something similar on my trip to Spain last week xx
Lucky you, I am hoping in the next two years to be able to spend the winters in a warmer and more lighter place than Finland. Retirement is nearing.
You’ll love it! We have a grey windy day here and it’s pure novelty today xx
I remember when we lived in Las Vegas, it was so great to see clouds and rain instead of blue skies, and having come from four seasons and really to only have one season as different 😀
You’re Finnish by birth, so I expect the sombre skies are a natural part of your life. You work wonders with your photography xx
WOW! I loved the light into the colours, fascinating dear Ritva, Thank you, Love, nia
Inside photography has it’s delights
Mielenkiintoinen tutkielma 😁👍
