MISSED THE MIDNIGHT TRAIN

HERE IN pPRGUAY THERE ARE NO LONGER ANY TRAINS. lEFT ARE A COUPLE OF STATIONS AND A COUPLE OF KILOMETERS OF TRACK. IN THIS STATION IT CAN BE QUITE AN INTERESTING PLACE TO VISIT BECAUSE THERE ARE OFTEN STREET MARKETS, LOCAL ENTERTAINMENTS AND ME SOMETIMES TAKING SNAPS. ON THIS COPY I TRIED TO SIMULATE NIGHT TIME. PLEASE TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK

I think it is an interesting image that has a story to tell. The challenge of simulating night time is an interesting challenge.
I cannot tell if this is a composite image (my initial thought) or just cleverly edited. I see light and shadows and areas of focus and blur that I would not expect in a natural scene.
It does sound like the location and events offer an exciting and fun place to be for photography!

Hola Frank. Thanks for comment. It is a composite.Well spotted, although does that matter much these days? In reality I find it much easier to not have to compose if I can achieve what I want to without. The front rail for example just isnt there so I had to compose for that alone. Then the da`ppled sunlight on the bckground layer-I had to try to replicate that on his body and shoes etc. I am not entirely happy with the night effect-will have to do some youtube searching! Have a good
evening(?)
