After attending the One-day architectural workshop on Sunday, 26 Nov, and the Zoom meeting on Architectural editing, I created the following HDR Panorama.

I wanted to create the feeling of a warm family home at night and went for a warmer edit with the lights in the house. I did a sky replacement in Photoshop and made the sky also a bit warmer.

I lifted the shadows on the lawn to make it more visible.

  Jacques, the sky replacement in your Photoshop edit gives the impression of sunset colours, which doesn’t align with the actual shooting conditions of nautical twilight. For a more accurate depiction, consider using a sky that better represents nautical twilight, typically characterised by purples rather than blues.
  
  Also consider cropping a bit from the bottom of your image. This will reduce the lawn area, allowing for a stronger focus on the house and the sky, which are key elements in this scene. This adjustment can create a more balanced composition and enhance the impact of the scene.

    Thank you. I will re-edit with your suggestions.
