First, using the leaves foliage gobo, I mimicked the appearance of autumn leaves with deep amber and medium yellow lights.

Using the R80 on the cyc, I made it appear like a summer sky with no clouds. The parnells on the first electric were used to create sunlight illumination as well as give the appearance of sand on the ground. Finally, I used an overhead fresnel for extra modeling.

I combined blue and a little bit of yellow to create a grayish blue background, similar to how the sky looks when it is about to snow. Then I added more hints of blue using source fours on the sides and then a darker blue overhead. Finally, I added a beam of white light hitting from the Front of House.
