Library Rat

This was a west facing long exposure at twilight. The original sky was a bit boring, so I added a sunset sky from another picture to add clouds and texture.

• stacked sunset with its foreground removed, in new layer above first, blending mode set to overlay ( (to add clouds but keep the blue/pink colors of the original instead of the bright orange of the new sky), layer mask hiding the foreground
• lightened the foreground with a levels adjustment layer limited by a layer mask hiding the sky

Still not happy with the selection on some of the trees...
