Turning Day into Night

Sometimes a photo looks good in colour, sometimes it works well in B&W- and sometimes day can become night. I just got the new CS4 and was playing around with some of its new controls on this image while it was in colour. It didn’t look too bad as a colour shot (shot on my new Canon G10), but when I started fooling around with the B&W converter it suddenly started to pop. I missed Halloween by a month, but I will be ready next year and I will do all my shooting in the daytime when it is warmer and easier to focus.
