There are two images of NIGHT TIME at the Mormon Row Barn in Grand Teton National Park:
1) a darker image that evokes night time (image is clickable):
and
2) a lighter one (lower ISO) that appears to be daylight, but the stars are visible (this image is clickable also):
Which do you like better? So far, the lighter image is winning based on the number of features and votes; I’m leaning toward #2 above, the lighter of the two. (p.s. This started as “Writing”, and was meant to be a “Journal” entry; go to this link to see the first votes that were cast.

Both excellent but #2 is my favourite with the light focussing on the building, etc. Kasia

I think the lighter because it shows the contrasts, however it doesn’t look like night as much. I liked the dark one at first, then changed my mind.
A.M. Ruttle:
Hi Kay, you’ve captured my dilemma about night shots for sure! Thanks for stopping in! AMR
Gary Lengyel
I vote for #2. #1 just looks like an underexposed image.Have you tried shooting at full moon? :)
A.M. Ruttle:
Hi Gary, nice of you to drop in; I liked #1 at first but then came around to thinking what you’re mentioning. Yep, that was the big ole full moon lighting up the barn. Hope you had a good rest of your trip??!! AMR
Kim Barton
I like #2 also. I agree with Gary above about #1.

I like the lighter one. It brings out the cloud pattern more.
