It may be brighter when seated; it looks like the table top is nicely lit. She may also have a table-top mirror with lighting.

My wife occasionally complains that we don't have enough light around the mirror so that the look changes when she goes out into the sun. Yours looks relatively dim as well.

Hi Ether0p12348,
Your post has been automatically removed as it appears you are asking:
- What product or tool to buy.
- Where to buy a product or tool.
- For product, tool or brand recommendation.
We do not allow these posts as they lead to a great deal of spam. /r/DIY is focused on the how, what technique to employ and how to use the tools.
Other places you can get help. If you area asking:
-
What general type of product or tool required to carry out a particular task, consider asking your question in the Getting Started thread at the top of /r/DIY, rather than creating a new post
-
If you need recommendations for a product, you'll probably have better luck in a more specialised subreddit, eg /r/HomeImprovement or /r/woodworking etc.
For help requests please be sure you've read the Full Sub Rules.
I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please contact the moderators of this subreddit if you have any questions or concerns.

Thanks for the detailed write-up, but do you have any pictures or video of the finished project?

Spent time at a camp a few years ago and this was the access and from the lake.

Any type of 12-volt winch should work just fine - 60 feet isn’t that far, and you’re well within the weight limit of the cheapest winch. (Even a half ton winch could safely lift 330 pounds.)
For your trolley, I’d look at making “rails” from L-channel steel. Put the vertical piece in the outside. The cart can just be a square of steel with some roller skate wheels on it. They tend to have good bearings and are fairly durable.
The advantage I see using the L-channel is that you can go over whatever your existing landscaping is - you could have flowers, grass, etc. in the middle, and the cart should mostly just push them out of the way.

Most likely this is required in your jurisdiction as 4" gaping has been around for years. If someone were ever at your house and their child was injured as a result, your insurance would not cover you, and if and when you sell the house, it would be found by a home inspector and you'd be required to fix it before sale.

Worst case.... Someone could get hurt or killed resulting in a civil lawsuit. Lawyers will review previous house listing pictures and can put a timeline for recent renovations applied to the owner at that time.

It depends on where you live exactly. Different states in the .U.S have different laws. But usually it will come to bite you in the butt when you go to sell your house. Or if there is a lawsuit for some reason. It's always better to make things up to code to cover your skin, even if it is your own house.

It can also be the light. If it’s a cooler CCT which people tend to use it will mute a lot of colors pretty bad. Wanna go warmer about 4000-5000k. Using high CRI helps as well. OP’s looks cooler than I would have gone.
It’ll be more like being in a jewelry store. They have great lighting if you have ever noticed. I believe even the nicer make up places do this as well. Could be wrong.
TLDR: could be color temp of light and not the light being too dim.
