Gerald thanks once again for this nice image to work with this week.

1. I copied and pasted the image into Gimp.

2. I cropped the image to put the yellow bushes in the upper left corner of the image as close to a rule of thirds intersection as I could. I that makes science.

3. I copied the layer and used the curves tool to add overall contrast.

4. I copied the layer and desaturated it and opened channels to create luminosity mask.

5. I then over the course of 5 layers I used the luminosity mask to increases contrast and brightness on the right of the image and darken the left side.

I was shouting for something worm and a little dramatic. Maybe I went a little too fare.

Crazy dimensions, sorry! LR for perspective, B/W conversion, multiple gradients, and crop. SNS-HDR then into PS for dodging, burning and exposure via levels. Focus Magic for sharpening and Topaz Studio Detail. Thanks for the photo!

Im not very good at PS but I gave it my best go at it.

 

I use an old version of PhotoElemnts 6.

I adjusted the brightness and contrast to make it appear dusk.

Eliminated a few shadows using the clone tool

Air brushed in the street light and window lights, also adding in some spill light.

 

Hope you like the idea..
