Here's an old image I have when I visited Pittsburgh few years ago. The sun is setting in the southwest from my position. I'm trying to process it as natural as possible with just a slight pop. Comments always welcome. Cheers

Nicely done - I'd take the saturation down just a touch.

An interesting shot for sure. I like it overall. The composition is great and it looks like there is really good detail in the buildings but that's a guess because of the resolution posted. I agree with Kirk about the saturation especially the green and magenta hues seem to pop a bit too much.

Nice pano but I agree...reducing the vibrance and adding some contrast would really help improve your shot.

Thanks to all for the comments on how to improve the pic. I did a slight adjustment as suggested by Kirk and navydoc. Reduced the size as well to 1024max. Any feedback is always appreciated.

The buildings in the center still look off. Needs a CW rotation.
