Gold on green...observations

I am posting my observations from 'Gold on green'.
Correct me if I am wrong...
  1. More exposure needs to be set for yellow lighting when compared to white-fluorescent lighting.
  2. The gold gets more predominant in yellow lighting.
  3. So, if we are taking portraits, it is better to maintain fluorescent lighting
  4. And in case of jewelery advertisements, it is good to give a yellow lighting like in GRT's ad (Golden girl)
I kept the exposure at f/2.6, macro-mode throughout the exercise.

P.S. Thank you friends for pointing out that observations should also be shared...

Gold on green...an experiment with photography

I shot few frames last week: the subjects were few bangles and a ring that my mom usually wears.

I considered two set of lighting for the shots.First, I considered white lighting and switched on all the fluorescent tune lights in the hall. For the yellow lighting, I switched on the lamps in the hall.

Few shots are listed below:
Exposure was set for 8 seconds for the first shot, 2.5 seconds for the next 2 shots and 5 seconds for the last 4 shots.
