Here is a scene that I made where I try to create a feeling of a low lit dining room late at night.

well he was trying to recreate a night scene... the blue works well for the render, but i would still like to see a wire of the shot...

Accept no substitutions.

No, I think despite being a moonlight shot, what you really need to do is actually lighten the blue so you have a white in there too.
Then up the intensity of the light. This really needs contrast to sell it as night time

Ive tweaked the color in PS so you get the idea. Also if the light was coming from the window too, you'd have shadow being thrown across the table too, from the windoww frame and vase

Cheers

i agree with jay on this one, furthermore i think with all other lights, the intensity should be lower, making the moonlight even more dominant.
