Thanks! It was tough to balance the exposure. The highlights were on the ragged edge of unrecoverability, but the deep shadows still needed to be boosted a lot to get that spooky, shadowy feel. I use Topaz Denoise, and think that really helped keep the detail level up despite the low light and high ISO.

I think a lot of photographers limit their endeavors by refusing to use the higher ISO limits. This photo, with it's 2000 ISO proves this point. The excellent use of your PP programs made it possible. It would be interesting to see the original SOOC image BEFORE your PP. Very often, I will shoot at 1600.... or even higher, depending on the situation and the overall effect I want.
