Haha, trust you to come up with a literal shot:-) Great light! Nice to see there are some dust mites because I'm always struggling with lots of those;-)

In this case the dust was even intentional and hoped. I just had no time to make the table top to look like ground. Although, I now came to though I should have used coffee grounds...

The dust motes are there to make you feel superior, Gudrun. ;-)

Excellent and, as they always used to bang on at me in school, 'Rodker! ATQ!!' (answer the question!).
This you have manifestly done!

And here we have a "home made arranged setting" ;-) It was surprisingly difficult to get the composition and light as I planned, and it still is not good enough.

Miracle in this case is actually all the effort put on lighting. Thanks to powerful LED the ISO 250 is very good in order to avoid the noise. Although, it helped a lot to have a possibility to correct the Exposure Value (EV). Not necessarily common to have on older mobile phone camera software.
