 Really....just for giggles....I realize it is just a wacky image....but it reminded me of my childhood, and brings a smile to my face. Had to use the neighbor kid, as my daughters refused to go out in 30 degree weather to pose for a night portrait.

Ah, I understand those can only be hunted at night. Hope it was successful ;-)

I like this image a lot, but to most people it may not be clear that it was taken at night, especially since sepia tones were used and no light sources are to be seen in the background. Great processing and wonderful shot overall. It would have scored much higher had there been clear indications that this was in fact taken at night and it is not the post-processing that has achieved this.
