Smoky golden hour(ish)...

We haven't had much in the way of golden hours all week, which was this weeks' theme for the 52 week challenge, it's been dull and drizzly, with a succession of mostly grey hours and a few sunny spells but not when I needed one.

The sun did come out for a while today, but as predicted, by the time it was supposed to be golden hour (according to this very nifty twilight calculator ), it was more sort of a beige hour with no decent light or shadows.

Sooo, this is a photo taken as close to golden hour as possible while there was any actual sun... is golden hour allowed to occur indoors, or is it strictly an outdoor phenomenon? I just don't know. A liberal helping of artistic license for this weeks' challenge pic, but it's the best I could do :P
How did you get these beautiful swirls!? Amazing. Fav!

@ksmale @rjb71 It was mostly luck with the swirls in this case, I've tried photographing smoke before but never could get interesting patterns like this, the only thing I did differently was that I had the incense up on a table instead of on the floor, and I had the window open a small bit so the air was moving more than usual I guess :)
