This is a roof lamp inside a Portuguese restaurant in Cambridge named "The Sunset Cafe". I have a similar photo of a wall light in the same restaurant in TE Sunset Lamp

This Portuguese restaurant has more 30 years and food served here is terrific. You can find traditional Portuguese food like the "Carne à Alentejana"(pork and little necks), "Bacalhau à Brás" (a mix of cod, potatoes, eggs and onions), "Ameijoas à Bulhão Pato" (little necks in a garlic sauce) and the famous "Caldo Verde" (kale soup). And at the weekends you can ear the traditional "fado" music played and singed live inside the restaurant.

Didn't made any post processing on the photo. I've just changed the White Balance of the camera to reduce the environment lights and only get the lamp illumination.

I thought it was a CD lighted from behind. Very interesting light and the details of the "middle of the sun"

Very good exposure, it looks to me like some kind of odd eclipse.

J'aime toutes ces couleurs chaudes, on dirait un tableau moderne. Idée originale de photographier le dessus d'une lampe si j'ai bien comprit... Photo très nette et riches en couleurs
Bravo
