Building a background in the dark...

Showing the background in the day light was one thing, but it's another to show the same scene but at night. It's not just as simple as turning down the brightness, but it is still quite a simple precess of adding hue and saturation levels to cover the image in blue shades, darkening some of the shadows to exaggerate the levels of depth further, and ofcourse adding stars, and the image seems to transform.

This was the background we were given re-create, but this time, at night...



Following the steps ofcourse made it fairly simle to recreate the look, but certain aspects didn't seem to work in the way wanted for my image, and other tweaks are still needed to get the image looking right and as close as possible to the original. So again, possibly leaving the image for a few days and coming back to it will allow me to look at it with fresh eyes and a fresh thought process on how to combat the problems...
