Thanks, Ron. Always appreciate those thumbs!

Doing night shots can be a lot of fun, but I find it's frustrating trying to get the effect you want, without either washing out the color or getting way too much noise.

Much easier and more fun to cheat, lol.

This one was done in full daylight, then processed (Photoshop and Topaz) to give the scene that moonlit effect. Added the lights on the house and then tried doing some fake floodlighting of the house's exterior to make it appear a night shot.

Not perfect, but I thought it worked pretty well for a first try at doing something like this.

Thanks--as always--for looking.
