Here's a scene of a castle with walls Im fiddling with atm.
Was gonna put it in a bigger environment, with mountains and a sea, but it
looked awful. So I zoomed in. ;)

We'll see where it ends up in.

That's a nice castle, but... (always a but)

I see two things wrong with this images:

1. it's too dark.  I know it's dark at night, but try to "simulate" darkness 
by creating a high contrast, rather than making the entire image dark

2. the focal blur is way too high, which makes the scene look like a 
scalemodel.

cu!

Dark, soooo dark!
After some gamma and brightness adjustments, nice modeling. To bad it's all blured.
You can use a moovies trick: use a blue fill light. Dark blue is subconciously 
associated with the night.

Well... I can see the image jus as it is intended, I suppose, with its 
crimson/violet lighting. No adjustments needed. Otherwise, I agree with the 
comments. The focal blur in particular is not a good idea in this scene. Try 
also the bluish light as suggested.

Same for me, it looks good.

For those who are seeing a black image then I suggest that you adjust 
somehow your monitors controls, because you must be missing out on a lot of 
dark detail in other images.

Take a look at this grey-scale image here:

And adjust your monitor so that you can see the differences between each 
square.

I can see it as well :-)

It is a night view but maybe yet a little dark
The paperwhite background of my newsreader doesn't help either.

Adjusting the brightness is not realy an option for me, bright = blury, hard to 
read, text!
Cranking up the gamma seting helps some.
