 Took picture at Marine Corps Base, Hawaii. This is my first \"real\" nighttime attempt, so I\'m not expecting much of a vote.

Converted the RAW file using Aperture. Then exported to Photoshop where I cloned out some of the city lighting and bushes, applied levels, reduced the saturation some, applied an unsharp mask and shrunk it and burnt the statue! Finally I ran the image through NeatImage and saved for the web.

Nice image and with a little more PP I think could be really cool (not that I'm a PP expert, but from what I've seen others do on this site). Personally I'd crop off the bottom more to get rid of the bushes and the writing. The landscape in the background have excellent shape and color but could really be brought out more with some dodging/burning.
