Vibrant San Diego

The Petco Park is nice, as is the bridge and the car light trails. I'm guessing you stopped down quite a bit to get that neat starry light effect and the whole thing in focus?
The drop down in the bottom-center is quite distracting though - doesn't really add to the pic and almost seems like an eyesore compared to the rest of the nice downtown. Would've been nice to have another perspective of the same scene that avoids such prominence to it.

Beautiful! The blue is a bit overpowering compared to all the muted colors, but the scene is fantastic and well balanced.

South Street Bridge View

Neat skyline of Philadelphia. The dark blob of trees at the bottom are mildly distracting, but the buildings are strong enough subject to overcome it. The smooth water and the small portion of the reflections add to the picture nicely.

Bridge of Light

Very interesting! The Bridge not only crosses the water body, but also connects the warm left to the cool right :) The nice tone divide and the still reflections work very well. I would've cropped a little bit off the top and bottom - it's too much negative space I think.

An impressive view of Hong Kong! The 3 lights near the bottom-middle are very very distracting from such awesome view. Since their surroundings are dark anyway, you might be able to dim them in post-processing?

Wow! I've never captured lightning myself, let alone with such nice foreground and such beautiful colors in the sky. Very impressive. Hope the camera didn't get wet :)

Uhoh - did you enter it in the wrong challenge by mistake :P
Doesn't say city very well with such clear sky. Interesting lighting on the foreground though - care headlights?

Philadelphia

Nice skyline. (not from Seattle for a change :)
The trees in the bottom right are forming a dark blob that's distracting from the picture a little bit (I understand you can't chop trees for a pic :)

Light Under the Bridge

Nice B/W conversion. Took me a couple of seconds to orient myself in the pic - lots of lines going all over the place - and that's both the strength and weakness of this pic for me. The top 2/3rds of the pic works very well, even with the horizontal fence in the background. The foreground horizontal fence though, is too distracting I think - maybe dim it down in post-processing will work?
The converging lines from underside of the bridge and it's shadows are simply awesome though!

Night fall at Beijing East Rd

The tower is so interesting and wonderfully lit - a picture of it alone, shot on a tripod at low ISO would've done wonderfully well. This scene itself is too busy and has a few obvious problems:

Looks like a handheld - it's not sharp enough.
Looks like a high ISO shot - quite some noise in the dark.
And the horizon is tilted - the colorful tower and the street light are not straight and are tipping over.

Just my honest feedback - please let me know if you want me to remove this comment. Thanks.
