Shot of Boston I took recently. Two exposures - one long for the shadow detail and one short for the highlights, blended together with a luminosity mask. Converted to monochrome in cs6 and lightly toned with a hue #230 blue. Any feedback and cc is welcome.

I like it; but I'd try to fix the tilt in the buildings and maybe crop about 1/6 off the bottom.

I like it, too. I find the larger of the water pools in the lower right hand corner distracting because it's so bright. It draws my eye down to the rocks rather than into the scene. Maybe darken it or clone it out? It's a really nice shot.


Believe in your heart that something wonderful is about to happen.

I agree. I think the horizon is also slightly off.

Definitely like it.

I would prefer daytime shots of citys. Just my opinion but most citys at night look alike to me with the exception of unique buildings to a city. Dallas has one tower illuminated with colored lights that they can change for holidays. And I'll get it off my chest now. Having lived in Cincinnatti for many years it has one skyline shot from I-275 in Ky that is impressive to say the least at night with the Ohio river reflecting the skyline beautifully.
