Congratulations on your top ten finish. Had you not fotgotten the spare battery this may have finished in the top 5. Nevertheless, the image has power and a very nice friendly feel. Good work.
Ok, i really wasnt going to post a congrats, because I figured you got that already, but the post preceding mine says that the branches are a demise to the photo, and I just wanted to say that I disagree utterly, the branches are a spectacular addition to the photo, and well captured. Congrats, my favorite!
Thanks for the compliment! And I obviously agree with you. :)

Isn't is such a shame when you have the most beautiful cityscape, and you can't get a clear shot because of some branches? Unfortunately, they ruin what is an absolutely stunning background.
Nice. Really nice overall tone. Would not change this in any way - except maybe get rid of that green light in the water. I do understand that you could not have done that in this Basic Editing Challenge. Good job!
Very nice picture. I think cropping out some of the dark space at the bottom will draw attention more quicky to the happening lit city. The framing is very nice though, it brings a closedness to what would otherwise be just like any other waterfront picture. I really like the colors in the night sky too!
My absolute favorite skyline picture. I love how the foliage "frames" the city, the sky has a wonderful movement and softness to it, the warm tones are very appealing to me, very nice!
This is a winner (in my book anyway)! I really like the feeling of being safe in the quiet country side and just looking over at the hustle and bustle of city life. Very nice work here!! 10
the trees framing the shot at the bottom as well as picking up cloud detail from the reflection of the city lights make it one of the more interesting city at night shots
Pretty. The leaves make a very nice contrast against the sky. My only complaint is that the lights glare a bit, but there is probably no way to have gotten around that with basic editing.
