is there a way on lightroom to reduce intense light in old abonded house?

A few ways:
  • Use the 'objects' mask option, add the 4 windows into the same mask, then reduce hightlights and/or exposure
  • Use the 'pencil' mask option and paint over the 4 windows, then reduce hightlights and/or exposure
  • Use any type of mask, optionally limit it by luminance value, then reduce hightlights and/or exposure
So basically, create a mask, tweak the sliders :)
 
I think it looks brilliant as is. The intensity of those lights, to me, conveys how absolutely powerful, intense, and vast the universe is.
 
Create a mask of the sky, using the auto sky masking in Lightroom. Then duplicate and invert that mask to create a mask of the cabin and foreground. Adjust the sky mask for however you would like the sky to appear. Adjust the cabin mask for how you would like that to appear (If you’re sensitive to the window light, reduce the highlights). By creating the two masks, you can adjust each component of this photo independently and balance it to your vision.
