30-second exposure at a nearby development. Surprised how many stars I got in this capture. Was initially shooting somewhere else then came here, unfortunately a little too late for ideal lighting. Went back a couple of days later, but they'd since turned the fountain off (for the year I suppose), so I had to make this shot work.
Tried to lighten this as best as I could, but kept getting more noise than I liked. Wanted to do a slightly tighter crop as well, but that compounded the noise. So, after some 15 or 20 variations, I've come back to one of the first 3 as my entry. Fully expect to get a wealth of "too dark" comments, but that's okay, as I personally like the colors.
(As far as I can remember) PP included: Convert from raw, straighten, crop, levels, shadows/highlights, curves, hue/sat, noise reduction, resize, usm |

| Beautiful colors and spacing with the sky. The airplane is a little distracting, but adds to the feel of the suburbs. |

| Nice image - Like the tones. Not a fan of the border and the plane trail is actually a little distracting I think. |
