 Long exposure with ND8 filter. Difficult PP as it was very easy to oversaturate, I hope the colors finished OK. Still not happy with the sharpness. The boats were moving in the wind so that's fine but the city is too soft. Not sure how this could be fixed. I might ask after the challenge is over. There is also a problem with the level as no matter how I rotated it it did not look level! But the buildings are vertical.

Sweet and deep, just like I like my women; a last minute bump up for you I hope.

Beautiful evening color. The boats and mooring pylons on the right lead my eye right to the city. Nice composition.

Good use of leading the viewer into the image with the lines created from the posts and the boats. I really like the serene feeling this sky is providing.
