Street

What another busy day starting with a very productive U3A digital photography. S here is the Blip showing the end of my street.  I took a few shots at different settings, but decided to go b/w as the light from the main street lamp was to bright in colour.  It still is bright and would like to get it slightly lower.  Lightroom is my preferred editing programme.  A neighbour has just finished washing his van.  Using a tripod and long exposure, this was one of the photos taken in the dark.  I shall try again, so this will be a theme for the future. Any tips on reducing the brightness are welcomed.  Thanks.
