The gold is the reflection of the light off the bricks.
Have you ever tried light painting?
Or remote flash?

nope the only flash I use is from my ring flash...this is needed to get max DOF for insects.....I must admit I like taking flower shots so would be interested in what you do to get this control on light....I just use the down light from my oven extra fan and would love to get better light.......light is such a major part of photography IMHO....Pat

Try this then
Get a subject on black cloth in a dark(end) room. Set exposure to 1 second. Get a torch. Set the countdown timer to 2 seconds. (so there is no shudder when you press the shutter) press shutter relaese and 'paint' the object with the beam from the torch.
Experiment with:
Exposure settings: Increase to lighten image
Coloured light: try one colour from one angle and another from another.
I have done a light paint with an ultra violet torch. Didnt come out well, but a strange result none the less.
When you finally come to the area, I will take you somewhere underground to try large scale lightpainting, if you like? |

Light painting in ultra violet
It was experimental, so dont expect an interesting subject. |
