beautiful light. The sailboat really adds to the image. The sad thing is I still have no clue what city I'm in. :) 8

I guess I don't get out much because I'm not sure what city this is :)

Great use of light -- the sky adds a lovely touch to the composition... a bit too much water in the foreground as I feel some of the drama you've created with light gets disapated (?spelling) with the duller gray foreground. One of my favorites this challenge. bol

Great idea. I think this would have been even better with a sky background.

Pretty fine shot - good quality of light, detail seems lacking somewhat - I think that you've either used too high a radius when sharpening or your camera has done that for you (it reminds me of the way my Fuji2800Z shots come out), which gives those light lines around the building edges, and likewise removes details inside the shapes. Given the challenge, and open editing, I'd have thought cloning out the crane would have been good. I also think you've left too much space around the sky-line - whilst the quality in the sky and water is interesting, I don't think you need so much of it, and it makes the sky-line seem incidental to the composition. You have, at least, placed the horizon at a sensible point in frame, which is good. I think it needs more information to excite it, something extra: maybe that boat more in the foreground than it is, but something. Very much on the right lines though, I think.
