Helen, this is one of my favorite images of yours. Everything about is just plain RIGHT! I love the novelty of it and your composition is perfect.---Deb

Miguel, this is exactly as it looked at night and was actually the first (test) picture I took of around 100. There is virtually no PS manipulation other than resizing and sharpening, if I remember correctly. This is what it looks like in the daytime:http://www.pbase.com/image/11316464. The restaurant manager kept peeking out to see why I (plus husband, dog and friend) was taking up space in his parking lot without coming in to eat, but he kindly left me alone to get my picture :-).

This image is really amazing! I had to look hard to see if it was a fake palm or it you change the color in PS. Either one the final output is very very impressive and extremely well executed.
