How I did it- Before and After

[Syman]

Here's a quick run through on how I got to the final version the images below. Using Lightroom 2

[Syman]

Firstly I tweaked the exposure, brightness and contrast of the entire image. Then, using the selective brush tool I created a mask and applied the setting as you see in the image below.  Basically used a blue colour, and under exposed buy 0.8

Same deal with the building, I just used yellow and over exposed it.
