Beautiful capture! Really nice framing of the skyline with the foreground. Good work!

My favorite of the ones you posted! This is really sweet man.

A lot of time with night shots, overexposing really bugs me, but you got that under control, and I like the bushes in the foreground. It's sort of a wave that mirrors the cityscape. It's neat. I like it a lot.

here's what I've learned about shooting architecture - shoot with a little light in the sky, just after sundown, or just before sunrise.

This leaves color in the sky instead of a black maw - especially if there are clouds, you get a much cooler look.

//www.democard.com/architecture/ has some and //democard.com/temple/index.htm has more.

Sometimes I'll go back to the same spot several times at about the same time and shoot a every minute for twenty minutes or so as the sun sinks, to get all of the variations in color that happens as it sets.

Hope that helps, I've had great success with it, and I hope it serves you well. ;)

I really like this shot. The space needle is placed perfectly as a nice focal point, and exposed well despite being surrounded by such a darkly contrast background.

It might be a nice location to reshoot around christmas time when there are a lot of holiday lights and such giving some extra color and pop to the image. :)

You have framed the city nicely. For me, this image lacks a little 'pop.' Not sure why but it feels flat - I think it may be the subdued color. Its a good image but not quite a WOW image.
