Greetings from the Critique Club!
Initial impression: Looks like the opening or closing scene of a movie about a city's redemption. Going by the comments, others agree.
Technical: Composition, apart from obeying rule of 1/3s and not being too centred, isn't earth-shattering but the capture of light is really well done. Someone mentioned the haze being distracting, but if that is part of the skyline in Manila, then you are simply being true to your subject. I am a litle thrown by the immediate foregreound, can't quite make out if it's a dump, shoreline, etc.
Artistic: Great timing, again a very dramatic capture, great timing with the clouds parting.
Overall: Good work, well deserving of your finish in 33rd place and glad to see you didn't go overboard on the pp. Well done!
Feel free to PM me with any questions,
Susan |

| Dramatic capture with a really stunning sky and beams of light penetrating through the cloud cover to illuminate the city below in an eerie golden glow. 10 |

| Love the rays, nice wide angle shot, although it looks a bit oversharpened. |

| Reminds me of a still from a movie. Maybe too yellow/green? |

| Terrific capture of the sunrays. Love the wide crop to give it the sense of size. Really a breathtaking view. |

| I like the rays of light coming down but to me the city is so very hazy that it is distracting |
