Good from the camera setting point of view. Nice soft colors. I have a couple of suggestions on composition. I know it's often recommended to have something in the foreground that gives images more depth and interest. But this looks like the Blob from that 1950's horror movie of the same name. See how it looks if you crop it out. I would include all of the building on the right, or none of it. But don't cut it in half. Lastly, the gray cloud is a distraction.

Thanks. I'll try making the "blob" less prominent. I think it's that way by design.

PS Not sure what happened, somehow updating the photo on Flickr from LR killed the link. Anyway, the photo in post #1 is processed (somewhat). I tried to make the "blob" less intrusive, but didn't remove the building on the right or the small grey cloud. Not yet, anyway. I hate cloning tool in LR and I am too tired to fire up PSP.

I wonder if it would improve if you were to just crop out the bottom portion and create a wider panoramic-esque shot.
