I like the composition with the road curving around. Something feels like it's missing, but I can't put my finger on it. Overall, I like it for its simplicity.
Something funky about the sky (on my monitor)... banding... but this is such a beautiful image. I want to sit and look at it for a long time, imagining what's going on in the buildings. (not voting yet)
a really nice scene - good use of the road to lead us in- the sky has some very unusual color effects in it - the greens and purples in the sky appear to be due to oversaturation
