Could use some noise reduction. I like the scene a lot.

I agree, great photo but noisy. Were you not on a tripod?

I agree with all of the above: straighten the horizon, get rid of the noise and it will be a lovely picture.

Thanks all ill try to take the same shot again tonight. I did use the tripod coz shots took forver to capture at night time. i am not shure if the photomatix is causing it coz i am really new to it.

I really like this shot...

Agree with straightening the horizon...did you add the noise or is it in the RAW?

Very nice shot, I'm not really bothered by the noise, it seems to fit this scene. I'd suggest de-saturating the yellows to cut down on the bright yellow glare from the street lamp and window on the far right. In fact, it might be interesting to see this in a black and white conversion, or maybe with the colors very de-saturated but with just a little color left.

To make your approval "official" for people to edit and post copies of your images, you need to authorize this in your user profile (click on "User CP" at the top left of this page, then on "User Profile," go to the third panel ("Additional Information") and click "yes" for "Image edit and repost permission"). Since you said it was OK, here are a couple of edits. The first has a white balance adjustment plus de-saturation of the yellows, cyans, and greens to get rid of the strong coloring from the lights. The second is a 75% de-saturated version.

I too am trying to change that option. I see user cp on top left of page but after that theres just no "user profile" in site. I checked all overr the place and cant find it. If u could explain to me where this "user profile" is id be very gratefull.. thanks.
