To make a long story short...
I wanted to do a "lighthouse shot" by night, but I did not want this to be a shot in the dark, so to speak.
So I figured that I had to shoot it in the daytime, to get the lighting just right.
Also by shooting in the daytime I avoided those darned streetlights from the other side of the water.
I used a tripod and a Hoya r72 IR filter so I could operate with long exposures.
I wanted that sort of "misty" feel you get from shooting with ND filters, but I did not have one at the time.
Post processing:
Selenium tone, tone curve and lens vignetting in Adobe Lightroom.
Selective dodging and burning in
PS CS3 Extended.
Enjoy.
