I wish I could add something that I think would improve this shot but I have looked at it now for about 10 minutes. I just can't find a damn thing wrong with it. It really makes me want to go on vacation and feel the sand between my toes. Bright beautiful colors and a very nice photo. Composition is perfect. This is my opinion is one of the best in this challenge. Good luck and I hope it wins.

The fence is too prominent, while the shoes are not.

I really like this shot but the focus on the thongs is lost because it seems more focused on the sunset/rise.

That's a good angle and the lights have just the right effect. :)

Greetings from the Critique Club

As a native of Atlanta, I recognized this scene right away and must say you captured it well. Night shots can be very tricky as a long exposure is required to get the proper amount of detail, yet the same long exposure can cause the lights to be overly bright or "hot". Unfortunately, hot spots are probably what caused the lower score on this image. All of the building lights look great, its only hot on the trees in the middle of the image. Perhaps a shorter exposure time or even double exposure (though not for DPC challenges) could give you that nice balance that you need here.

Compositionally you found just the right spot to capture this scene. I like how you framed the shot and lead the eye with the curved stairs. You have a great eye - please continue to share it with us.

Good luck
Cindi

This is a great B&W. Excellent tones and clarity, not to mention the subject matter. :-)
