Burnished

It was the Magic Hour, the moment in time when every leaf and blade of grass seemed to separate, when sunlight, burnished by the rain and softened by the coming night, gave the world an impossibly beautiful glow.

(Kristin Hannah)

This was a very dull picture before I added this sepia tone effect - I think it looks like burnished pewter.
