No. I just tweak 2 images contrast to make it slightly darker. The rest I relied on exposure control.

I did a bulb exposure on a darkbackground with a torch.
The rest of the picture was meant to be underexposed to reflect the idea of darkness.

This piece of work reflects my view on life. Where one sees no diamond, and when even with the sun, the sky still look dark. We create visions in our life (like an imaginery diamond), to give us hopes and the energy to live. Yet a denial facts of life.
