What's the faux part? Is this at Epcot? Was this turned into a night scene using PS?
I would love to hear the story of this one.
It's overall a bit dark, but I guess that gives it the nighttime atmosphere.

Yep it was epcot. It was shot as the sun set over the
horizon. It was darkened in photoshop to give it the
night effect. The original is a bit lighter with more
shadow detail but I like the shot with less detail and
more of a mood effect as a darker scene.

Cool, it does feel like Venice :). It reminds me of a picture that I got from the real Venice many years ago. I took that one on a rainy evening after sunset. I got the streetlights reflected in the canal on that one too. I'll have to scan that one of these days and post it here.

Epcot!! Coulda fooled me
I like this photo very much, Steve. You got the color and contrast just right - I like the way most of the foreground objects are in sillhouette, but you can see those cool candy-striped poles. Just the right touch of light in that large area of dark
Steve,
Thanks for the kind words. I was just plain lucky with the candy striped poles. You know what they say, sometimes its better to be lucky than good.
The other thing that is certain is that if you shoot enough pictures, you have a better chance of getting lucky. That is the best thing about digital. I have shot more pictures in the last 5 years than the previous 40 combined by a factor of ten.

SteveF,
I had a chance to look at this picture more carefully on my monitor at home, which is brighter than the one at my office. On my home monitor, I can better understand what you were trying to do with the exposure. It's not too dark at all, in fact, I think what you did with this scene is very nice and really original!!!
