it was nearly nightime.. ISO 800 was about the best i could squeeze.. and i did the color changes on purpose, i'll poke around for an original of the top one though if you'd like.

Edit: Here it is.. was trying to capture some of the passion behind the chally with the red in the first post.

I would say bump the exposure a bit, nudge the fill light, up contrast, then if you want to add red, use the highlight/shadow adjustments to do so

cool angles though, need more contrast to pop

I tried to toy with it a bit in lightroom, but it seems that with the jpg posted the dark area under the lights is underexposed beyond repair w/o letting iso noise take over.

heres what i came up with (again...iso gets in the way largely..)

Id first of all straighten it, and the take the one where you used flash and put the clouds from the other exposure back in, or another sky if youre feeling crafty.

Sky looks a bit out of place...try going with something darker. Something simmilar to this, although I think its a bit TOO dark...kind of distracting. Its just a balancing act really
