      Attached is a low res night shot of the garden.I try to use as many colours from the attached colour wheel in order to create contrasts,i.e bright oranges against mellow blues and purples.As I said before night is rarely if ever black,there is always a hint of blue in the atmosphere.

          Great work. My only criticism is that the driveway light/garden light looks more like a whole cut in a watercolor laying on a light table. My recommendation would be to take the original art for the vegetation before you blackened it and take that little bit (with original color but color balanced to the blue end of the spectrum) that would be illuminated by the lamp and float it to a new layer. The effect being that light from the lamp would give a tinge of blue light to the nearby foliage.

                  I like what the tweaks have done. The night lamps are pushed back and fit better into the context. Very nice.

                          I like the render ๐Ÿ‘ -- but the photoshop work and your skill with color just makes it "art"... I'm a big fan โ˜€

                                  Its always good to get positive feedback. I am always trying as much to create a mood, as well as display the building.Rich blues,greens,oranges and purples are usually my pallete.I am also constantly on the lookout for entourage such as trees,skies etc.you never can have enough trees!
                                  Here's another view of the same building but with a much more different sky.The lighting in the house is the same as previous images but its amazing how changing the sky changes everything.

                                        one more.Ive been toying with the idea of making one large,long image with multiple models that I have worked on appearing amidst the landscape as it changes from trees to roads to fields etc.
