Let me know. I am pretty happy with this night shot.

Very Nice... I would crop the bottom a bit but I am a novice so it is a very humble opinion.

I like the composition. I'd crop out the bottom half to show just the skyline and sky. Possibly stop at the water?

I'd also brighten it up a little using Levels in Photoshop.

I'm fairly new to posting here, and still amateur, so take my comments with a grain of salt.

i like it, but i agree, its a little top heavy, try cropping some of the bottom and i think it'll bring the attention more up to the skyline instead of down at the bottom. a larger pic with more of a panoramic sort of crop would look nice.

I like that even more than the original! I would still crop it more because to me the trees are making the shot too dark in the corners.

With or without that I am a big fan of this shot! I am already thinking of doing the same to the Miami skyline this weekend!

I'd crop tight and use selective color if you edit with PS - try bringing up the green in the trees if you leave them.

Nice shot of the lights downtown. I live in Minneapolis and shoot a lot of night shots.
Where was your location when you shot this one?

Thanks. I was near Cherokee Park, across the river, when I took it.
