The proximity of the slabs to the sides of the tent explain the brighter areas as the source of the light. The overall enveloping of the soft light explains the unnatural look of the image. The blue cast is caused by the white balance being set to the incorrect setting for the light source. </p><p><br /></p><p>The point to take from this is...
