Sky, moon, and reflective water are good ingrediets for en evening cityscape. To have about 1/3rd of the image devoted to horizon below the sky is generally about right for a cityscape. Sunset is the gateway to darkness so fits the challenge theme well.

This image will score low for several reasons. There is considerable electronic noise in the sky that should be removed. The image is very soft focused and has a yellowish hue common inn low light level situations. There should be color corrections applied in post processing to bring out latent colors and add visual interest to the image.

There is not a lot appealing for viewers to see in this image. The composition lacks a central focal point that the viewer will like to look at. The building and moon ar about the only things to attract the viewers eyes and those are small with little detail to be seen.

The river is calm and would make for great reflections but there is very little for it to reflect. There is plenty of sky in the composition but not much there to look at either. Good cityscapes with lighted skies like this are better if it contains clouds.

Good attempt. Shame about the grainy sky, though. 4

I was wondering if anyone was going to do this (I posted the message about the technique in the forum). Pretty good job here - maybe a bit more work matching the colors would have helped. But the matching up of the background lines is excellent!
