Wow John, I knew by the live video feed as you shot that you were going to get something good... this even exceeds my expectations!
You can definitely see the improvement in edge sharpness in the later series, when it was higher above the horizon. We likely won't get seeing like that again soon. What a great coincidence that it happened on a weekend night near opposition... and moonless at that.

I really like the composition on this shot, and in fact I expected it to finish much higher than it did. I gave it a 7.
I don't find the grain objectionable.

Made me thirsty! Nice composition and I like the hard light. The colors and contrast are perfect, IMO. Contrasty & saturated without being "over the top." Very nice work.

I know the boat is technically your subject, and is in focus, however I feel the BG lights in this case need to be in focus as well. A smaller aperture and/or slightly different focus point would have helped immensely I think.

I like the concept, and the editing basically works, even though I'm sure it looks nothing like the original in mood!
I did take one point off for the fiarly apparent halo around the building where burning on the sky fades out.

Doors to Erudition

I like the basic idea... the distortion and tilt of the door frame detracts for me. The light switch doesn't seem to be adding anything, I wonder if hooting from bit higher could have eliminated it?

A nice capture... the saturation is just too much for me though. IMO this would have done better with significantly less oversaturation.
