Spotted in Blackrock Park last week during full daylight and given a bit of Moonlight treatment in Photoshop. This general approach was often used in old Hollywood movies - filmed in daylight but darkened and tinted to give a night look - also called "nuite americaine" effect.

Great effect, that... I love reading about special photoshop tricks like these. Must try diddling some pictures!

The tree is especially creepy. Sort of resembles a skeletal hand..
