"Mr. Williker's story time nights were always a favorite for the village kids. They would come from miles around to hear his tales of his years of service with the Peace Corps and the C.I.A. and they loved when he would frequently get them confused."

I think I got lazy on this one by relying on only the ambient light in the room and a longer exposure. I should have hauled a gridded beauty dish out from downstairs and put it on a boom arm directly over the moose shining straight down then killed the ambient lights in the room to give it more of a dark story time feel.
