Hi Judy and *Greetings from the Critique Club *

As you will note, I left a fairly long comment on your image during the challenge. I stand by my earlier comments and am very surprised your image didn't finish higher.

There was a comment about the image being tilted - which is not the case. If you look at the left and right sides of the image - the building is victim of the effect called "keystoning" which is caused by shooting up with a wide angle lens. Keystoning can be corrected by a) Using a shift perspective lens (expensive and probably not available on the 717), b) Shooting level with the building (have a heliocopter?) or c) Post processing.

Once again - a very strong and vibrant submission - congratulations.

I like how the majority of the shot is yellow with the exception of the green stature at the top.

Comment by Sammie:
Very nice night photo, everything is in good focus and there is no noise in the sky. The building looks a bit crooked.

Very nice photo, colors, clarity, contrast. I wish that tree weren't in the photo. I know there's nothing you can do about that, but it does take away from the overall perfection. I like this photo a lot though! Great job!

the gold yellow tones do not work for me...a red sepia might have been better. Composition is OK as is the detail.
