Sometimes using the Glow tool will do that, but not as nicely as this way. These look great. I'm going to figure it out. Is there a sort of step-by-step method?

Start by pushing Fill, Highlight and Shadow all the way to the right. The screen will probably go blank. Then, slowly move each one back to see what happens. Push it back to the right, and try the next one. You get a different effect depending on which bar you are using.

I use the same function and push the tabs all the way to the left and work my way back to get a virtually black background.
Yay for Picasa!

These are awesome images from Picasa2. I've been using Picasa2 for about a year now and had actually started my own group but closed it down due to lack of interest.
I just joined this group after finding it.

Strong Highlight settings as well as use of the Color Picker feature can provide all sorts of results as seen in this example:

Used a little graduated tint to make the upper part - street lights - have a bit more density. Without that, the lamps were too washed out.
Shot on a gray overcast day at 12:30.
Best viewed large.
