That crossed my mind more than once while making such a scene with bright
flames and darker surroundings.
It's just a dark scene to start with, being lit only by a very dim light
intended to be something like twilight shining in through a window or
something and the rest is only firelight which didn't brighten things up much.
The "room" is a closed box of approx. 30W by 10H by 18.5D units and fireplace
is 6W by 4H by 5D.
I might be forced to quit the fire changes (getting nowhere but worse) and
begin on the other parts, fireplace tools being one, along with spark screen
and whatever else I might change about the appearance.
