I quite fancy the idea of darkening the background and enhancing what i'm looking at, i thought that cutting out the light from the streetlights would do this? maybe i'm completely wrong?

I have a LPS streetlamp in front of my house [all my observing from rear!] and when I apply a Neodymium type filter to the eye the LPS illumination to the surrounding road and street scene vanishes! I've also found a 49mm diam Jessops 80A blue [cost=tenner] visually suppresses [but don't eliminate] LPS and likewise photographically but needs x2 exposure to compensate. Hope this helps. Nytecam
