Yes, but you will need to adjust your camera settings to the following.....
1. use a tripod and your timer
2. ISO 100
3. flash OFF
4. White balance set to 9900K. If you do not have the Kelvin filter in your menu selection, then you have to experiment with each and every white balance setting until you get what you are looking for.
5. Manual mode
6. Macro mode if you are doing a close up shot only
7. Set you f/stop to some where near f/30
8. Adjust your shutter speed so that your exposure meter is EV -0.05 and the again to EV -0.1
9. Set your camera style to "vivid" to enhance any subtle colors
*** if you can NOT make these adjustments with your camera shoot in Aperture Mode (A) and set it for the highest setting.
*** use your timer after focusing on the shot and setting up your new settings to avoid camera shake.
*** these are long exposures so a tripod is mandatory!
*** read your manual if you are not 100 percent sure how to make the adjustments.

LMK, if this helps.
