Have been try ing to get this to look realistic and not arty.
took a very arty version and layered over this original, then mixed somthing (still learning), this is the result. I like it more than the original and the art one.
Please give feedback that is helpful, trying to learn this as i really like the style.

I prefer the first one [presumably non-HDR due to lack of watermarks], but the tower needs some more contrast.

Was this taken from Madinat?

Very nicely composed shot just pp them up a little more. That is one awesome piece of architecture.

Agreed. Hope you don't mind, here's what I was thinking of a quick edit - tweaked the levels of the tower, lifted the shadows in the foreground, applied a little local contrast enhancement with a low amount, high radius USM before finally a tiny boost in saturation.
