Gloaming
Tree-mounted downlight
Light that falls the way moonlight does.
The light, its use and its story
Mounted high in a tree and aimed down through the canopy, the Gloaming does something no ground-level fixture can: it lights a space the way the moon does, from above, in soft dappled pools broken by leaves and branches. The effect is quiet and entirely natural - you notice the garden, not the lighting.
It's fully shielded, so the source stays hidden. Angled correctly, there is no glare at all: you can stand anywhere beneath it and never see the light itself, only what it touches. Mounting no higher than around six feet keeps the spill low and contained, and keeps the fixture serviceable without a ladder.
The gloaming is the old British word for the last light of dusk - the slow blue hour after sunset. It seemed the right name for a light that falls from above.
Every Hudson fixture takes its name from the British landscape after dark - its creatures, its plants, and the old country words for dusk.
Placement & specifications
Downlighting from a tree onto a path or seating area below.
Placement advice
Mount above the area you want to use and aim downward. Select the beam to suit the distance and the surface that needs light.
Avoid lighting nests, roosts and dark habitat. Tree attachments need to allow for healthy growth and maintenance.

Test details and source notes
The shape shows relative intensity, not how far the light travels. Candela values come from the file. This is not a site illuminance calculation or a compliance assessment.
