It was midnight and very cold. I was trying to create as much juxtaposition as possible for a photograph taken in the dark. Although snow on the deck would have made a nice touch. It was two days after the full moon so I had plenty of light, nice timing for this challenge. With two neighbors having an outside light that created a shadow element through the railing was better than expected. The lights are well over a hundred feet away so I am surprised how much impact there was. I am not sure about the reflection in my sunglasses, it seemed pitch black outside to me but long exposures pick up light everywhere. Great idea for a challenge. I still find it quite bizarre how dark it was and how much color appears in the photo.
