Challenge: Night Shot IV (Basic Editing)
Camera: Nikon D80
Lens: Nikon AF Zoom-Nikkor 18-135mm f/3.5- 5.6G ED DX

This is the same spot (almost) from where I first shot the mosque, but that was before the challenge dates. So, I went back and shot it again. I know it's a bit bright by the dome, but I liked the effect, especially with the natural becon of light being emitted from the apex. Once I adjusted the curves, levels, colors, etc., this is how it came out. I think I could have made a really spectacular showing with advanced editing.

The mosque seems a little too bright and has lost detail. Otherwise a grat photo.

What's with the color/haloing? Quite distracting.
