This photo has been extensively PP’d to obtain a nightime effect - does it work :?:

It was daytime?

There is a lot of wall on the left and right that I could do without, I am not sure if the perspective is worth the wall - as long as you are PPing, how does a tighter crop look?

Yes daytime Justin, in colour and thanks for the heads up on the crop.

Thanks Vince - I used PSCS2 Channel mixer to convert to monchrome and then played with the red, green and blue channels. A crop as suggested by Justin and a little dodging on the persons face to bring it up a tad.

Chris,

I like the night version quite a lot. Works for me.

The original version is damm impressive too, it has an awesome feel about it - the only thing that detracts is the blown sky but I'd be pretty happy with that shot.
