Evening Edit.
You can sort of make daylight photos look like evening shots in Lightroom. The shadows won’t quite match because the sun isn’t actually low but it will at least fool some people and seem like avery warm day to others (movie-like sun, Arizona or something). Use the temperature control sparingly, go to the bottom of…

Lightroom Expriments: Tunnel
Before and after shot of what I’ve been working on recently. No actual Photoshop was used – just adjustment brush layers in LR.
