This Picture was taken last Friday night at a local car show. This is my first time putting up a picture in here so dont beat me up to badly :D . The picture is unedited except for its size.

I like the composition, and the lighting looks like it would be very interesting. But it's *way* too dark for me to see much.

i like the idea!

but as scottes said it's to dark to see any contrast

try lighting it up a bit

Thanks for the suggestions. I tried to fix the exposure, but it brought more of the orange from the street lamps and I dont know if I like it or not. I dont have PS, so if anyone would like to play w/ it in PS be my guest.

Much better, and I like the orange/gold look. It makes it different.

Here is a quick stab at it.

You don't give us any info on the cam, but if you have custom WB, then try using it next time.
Photo$hop Elements comes with some cameras & can be bought for about $50.
The GIMP is similar to P$hop, & it's free.
