Used hi-pass filter for initial sharpening. Used selected areas of burnt out and applied them in multiply mode. Used burn tool to accent choice areas where detail was lost. Used clone in sky to erase streaks caused by 8 sec exposure. UM

Bottom right - weird cloning artefacts? Great technical detailing, enough sense of place to suit challenge, just perhaps lacking real ping - some foreground element might help, give a sense of depth to the image? But very very clean photography, apart from the poor cloning thing.
For some reason the night I went to take a similar photo the lights were off! This is great although I would have liked to see at least a little bit of color in the sky as it is rarely completely dark. The amount of detail you have on the lights is very impressive. 8
