That photograph is not staged. That's a real evening anchored in St. Aubin's Bay, with St. Helier's lights on the horizon and a bottle of something cold on the table. The warm amber glow from under the cockpit coaming is an Osculati LED strip on a dimmer. This is what the right lighting does to a boat.
Good deck lighting does two things: makes the cockpit usable after dark without destroying your night vision, and makes the boat look beautiful at anchor. The key is warm white LEDs on a dimmer. Cool white makes a boat look like a hospital ward.
Anchoring off St. Aubin's on a summer evening, with Elizabeth Castle lit up to the east — this is when good deck lighting earns its keep. These are the products that have made those evenings genuinely special.
