It's lovely and murky, as the title suggests Mowog. Well suited to the conversion.

You must have kept the aperture wide open in order to minimise the shutter speed? If that was the case, you clearly did not want long light trails in the shot.

Focusing would have been loads of fun in that light - it looks to me that you selected the area between the two parked cars on which to do that.

It certainly was a murky night. And it's supposed to be high summer here, now!
I think the shutter speed was about 1/8th. Yes, lens had to be wide open, or I wouldn't have been able to hand hold the camera at lower speeds.

And here was I assuming this was on a tripod! Well done.

Tripod! - Oh, no... Standing on a wobbly chair, leaning out of a skylight window.
