Camera and lighting trick, they are actually not low light, they are fast shutter speed...
I used a manual focus & my Fstop set to 2.8 - 3.2 (open lens) depending on zoom - using a macro zoom lens with the light meter set for spot and make sure to turn continuous to OFF (so I can pick and HOLD different lighting by aiming in either the shadows or into the highlights or anywhere in between until I get the contrast levels I am seeking.)

There are (6) 4 foot tubes in 2700k 5000k and 6000k color wavelengths (warm, cool, and daylight) (2) 8 foot tubes - Plus spot. The second picture below shows the different bulb colors in the reflection.

I set my camera to bracket my photos almost every time I pick it up. (what ever exposure time I choose the camera shoots PLUS one overexposed and one underexposed) 3 shots every shutter click. Sometimes there are details you can't pick up that you would like to be able to see.
