“When twilight drops her curtain down and pins it with a star, remember that you have a friend though she may wander far.”

“Laughter is day, and sobriety is night; a smile is the twilight that hovers gently between both, more bewitching than either.”

Hi Terry,
you managed the exposure well. Though perhaps just one stop more (i.e OEV+1) may have looked even better.

But I do wish the lamppost in foreground was much further away from the centre.

Best regards, Daniel
