Nice job, Sandi! You got the exposure just right.

That's a poster shot, Sandi. Well done.

Lovely shot, Sandi. The mood is great as well.

Excellent photo. The composition is very nice and the clouds above the city just make the image what it is. It's probably just me and would also have something to do with it being a very small photo but in my opinion it is a bit over sharpened.

Yes, indeed, an impressive colour range: you show the kit lens is good when in the right hands, Sandi! ;-)a

Very nice.

When was that taken? recently?

I can see my office in that! Top floor of the 3rd highest building (the one on the very left of the photo!!) Can you see me waving??

Everyone who goes to Kings Park has taken that very same shot... that's a million times better than my attempt, and also one of the best I've ever seen. Christian Fletcher took a good one from there too. Might be on his website.

Fantastic shot! Everything looks so crisp and clear.

Would you please tell me your secret?
Espically how you seem to be able to resize and still maintain great detail.

Most of my cityscapes look horrible after I resize them!

That's beautiful! The clouds are so menacing and the city so sharp. Nice job!

*edit* I just realized I had already commented on this shot. Guess I liked it just as much the second time!

Great shot Sandi. I love the clouds and the overall exposure of the scene.

I just checked out his site. Wow, Australia has some AMAZING landscapes. I also saw the comparitive picture and I must say, I like Sandi's better. I know his is at night, but her crop just seems to work more for me.
