The Image: My beautiful City...tripod, dusk, long exposure.

The Edit: Black and white with blue tint, levels, USM, Smart Sharpen. Cloned out a sensor dust spot.

The Prediction: Not sure, some will say it's wide-angle-skewed, some will not like the border, some will recognise it as mine and mark me down because I have won ribbons aplenty :) I reckon 6.5789

Post: Thanks for the votes everyone...it exceeded my expectation. I think I might be moving out of my BLUE phase now...Enzo

Stunning shot, Enzo. As far as I'm concerned, you can stay in your blue phase as long as you want ;-)

Yes, it would hardly be fair to maintain the 'blues' with the huge success you've had recently - GRIN!

oh and just one point - not MY beautiful city - perhaps OUR (GRIN!)

I'm always SO PROUD to see how you present our city and state Enzo - it's a joy to witness.

Can't wait to see what phase is next - I'm sure it will be AWESOME!

I *almost* left a comment guessing this was yours, Enzo. It certainly looks like your classic blue city shots. :) Congrats on top 10!

Cool sepia tones. Hard to tell if it fits the challenge. Is it morning...

I'm guessing this is hotpasta. The image itself is beautiful. The composition, the lighting and the contrast are all very well done. I'd like to see an alternate version using a warmer colour as a duotone. To me the cool blue suggests night time.

This looks like another amazing Enzo shot :-) (mind you I've said that once already this challenge and I can't be right twice lol)

Another amazing blue tint and the reflections on the water are beautiful. The buildings are nice and sharp, particularly the taller one on the left.
