Your house seems to be your favourite model now :->. But you are right, it is very inviting. Again , a great photo! How do you manage to have such a warm, yellow light? Do you use candles, classic bulbs or photoshop?

Loverly shot 

I have just purchased myself a s2950 fuji camera and i hope to be able to take good shots like these. they are quite stunning to look at. thank u for posting them . enjoy 2012.

For people who are as stupid as me. "ND Grad" means "graduated neutral density filter".

Here is an explanation of this filter.

Ian, I don't understand why this filter would have given a better result. You would have made the front of the picture darker?

And why not using a processing software to do this work?

I like the picture as it is.
