Really nice shot. I would probably clone out the leaves in the upper left, but this photo looks great with or without them Great job!

I think this is really good - but may have been even betterif shot from a slightly different angle - maybe more to the right or the left. While not every picture is enhanced by a rule of thirds, this one may have been ehnanced by using that principal. Love the buildlings in behind. This image really captures a mood. Good luck -7

I would crop out the ground in the front, it's a bit distracting. The skyline behind is nice.

Very nice and very creative but it would work if the field wasn't wet and there wasn't muck all over the place, it would maybe look better. 9

Good contrast between the park and the city.

Wow. I really really like this photo. It puts a whole different view on the city. I hope this places at the top, at least the top 10! Good job...

Wow, this is awesome. Not just the rained out capture but the fact that there is basically nobody in your frame taken in a city of ... 10 million people! That in itself is a huge accomplishment in my book.
