 I exposed this in color but desaturated, it gives me a better sense of mood. I am showing the force of nature standing against and blocking out the industrial lights behind it. The artifacts and graininess in the image help to add to it's mood of basic emotions, and the unrefined stoutness of the trees.

I'm a newbie, so any comments are appreciated!! Thanks!!

Creative idea.

Too much low light - could have been much better as an effective night shot with a little slower shutter speed. Then again, that would have created a different problem with the lighting in the background. A very difficult shot even for an expert with all the technical tools available from the camera to post processing.
