thanks for critique, it was really helpfull, all have a critique about my dead space on the top, i think you all are right, to much space Man,
my first try was to have some balance between the sky and the water but i think that dident work at all : (

This is a comment from the Critique Club;

Great night shot. I think you got punished on this one due to the "Did not meet Challenge" issue. Some people might've had a hard time looking for the contrasting colours. I think that was your main problem on this one.

Commenting on the image - GREAT shot. Lovely colour and Sharpness. Maybe could've cropped a little away from the sky and include more of the water. Lots of "dead" space at the top.
Photo might also be a bit small - Try using the full 640pixels allowed.

Remember that this is my views only. Take it or leave it - Up to you.

This is a comment from the Critique Club;

Let me tell you what I like;
Great night shot. Very little to no noise, Love the lights (I am a sucker for night shots). Nice long exposure to smoothen the water surface. All in All - Above average night shot.

What brought your scores down (IMHO);
The "does not fit the challenge issue". Think this is the most influencing factor that contributed to such a low score for such a nice image.

Complimenting on the night shot - Sharpness is good - Might try to crop our some of the sky though. Get more of the water in.

Truly a nice image. Pity about the DNMC issue. Keep up the good work.

Where exactly are the compliments? It's hard for me to comprehend as I scan the photo and try to find compliments.

A cool picture but not much of a color contrast to me, since it is just so dark..

I like the concept but the blue lights at right are a touch overexposed. Also you might try cropping out some sky at the top.

Nice long exposure, might have looked a bit more impressive as square crop.

Excellent exposure, great complementary colours. Would have been even stronger if you used some colour balance of selective colour in PS maybe. Regardless, I like this alot and makes a great change from all the flowers in this challenge. 8

I like the lights here, but the photo isn't as sharp as it could have been, and it is a bit dark too. 4

4 - Good potential. Bigger (640) and a stronger crop, especially at the top, for this Challenge, to accentuate the colors, make this better in my opinion. Some tweaking pp to get the colors a little more vivid 'somehow' too, although likely difficult with the exposure/lights/etc. Perhaps a sharper/more unusual perspective may have also given this a little extra not sure.

Interesting take on the challenge. Horizon seems a bit too centered. Think I'd have moved it up and eliminated just a bit more of the black sky.
