that is a beautiful shot. I don't know what warrants 1st or 2nd or 3rd place, but that doesn't matter. just be satisfied that you have taken a beautiful shot.

I was waiting to see if this was your photo of Pittsburgh. Wonderful night shot. So when are you going to start making postcards of it? =o)

Congrats on the 5th place finish.

This shot originally scored very low on my first pass, the angle threw me off and the bridge on the bottom was more distracting than inviting the first time around. Upon a second look, a closer look the bridge actually helps draw you in from the corner of the shot, excellent cropping and the lights are crisp and clear, the reflections in the river are muted enough that they don't pull you away from the skyline. It's a bit more busy than I personally like but the overall quality is very good. Score going up at least 5 points.

Wow, great colours. The sky is a bit grainy and could have been darker, but you pulled it off OK. Great composition - the bridge leads you into the city.

Marvelous coloring and light, excellent sense of depth, the buildings don't look flat and boring, nice energy. Many other night shots submitted but I enjoyed this one the most.

Decent night shot. If you have a PC a freebe called NeatImage might greatly smooth out your mottled sky background.

The lights come across almost as bright as daytime. The bridge and reflections really add a lot.
