Beautiful serene pic. The natural lighting is very soft and lends a mellowness feeling which can only be found at dusk or dawn. By the looks of it this is early morning right? Getting those two buses in there was also a stroke of luck, they bring a little life into the image - 9.

I like the lighting and the colors of the buildings on the left. The silhouetted buildings and reflections form a nice contrast.

The left side is great but I'm not too keen on the black tree on the right. I'm not sure how I'd change it though.

Comment by ronners:
The darker areas are a little too dark, so much so that they don't hold much interest. You chose the right time of day to shoot this one, and maybe a closer view of those wonderfully lit buildings would work better.

Does water ever make you wonder at its power? For all that has happened through time, water still runs its course and never allows anyone to 'walk' all over it. You can't even really shift the source. It just bites back. Nice image.

Very crisp and clean with some nice color to the sky. The glow on the red/orange building on the left is good. The crop is good, although was tempted to say to lose the tree on the right but then you'd lose the color, but it's a nice addition of nature merging with the concrete jungle. The bottom part of the image seems a little dark, tho. Cropping it just below the bottom of the bridge would have removed the dark parts, but then you lose the water. Shame we cant do any dodge/burning in the challenge. Overall it's a good capture.
