Yes, this is my hometown again. Hard shot 'cause my camera is, well, crap at ISO 400 (although I love it!). The IS saved this in the end, allowing to use f/8 at 1/3s, handheld.

NI, levels, curves, colour balance, USM, sharpen, resize, sharpen, add border.

this is a beautiful view, one that i hope you (or i, myself, for that matter) are able to revisit. unfortunately, your image is horribly pixelated. after the challenge, you might want to reach out to the forums for some help to see what can be done to get this image to the quality it deserves. otherwise, you'll need to go back and reshoot. lovely colors and composition.

Wonderful warm color in the foreground, and I really like the composition - has a very nice flow to it. Well seen.

Oh wow. Now THERE'S a place I'd want to be right now. So beautiful, although the picture quality leaves a little to be desired. Did you heavily crop this?

Very good composition and point of view, but it looks just a bit too noisy.

Very nice vantage point. The image appears very grainy to me which may not help your score. A solid clear/crisp image would have placed you quite high in my opinion. I also find the border to take away from what you captured. Good Luck.

The lights really make this composition work, but the graininess and feeling of overexposure interferes with the overall effect of that.
