Actually I have no clue why some numbers on the clock are relatively sharp, whereas the rest seems blurry. Maybe the USM worked better on those numbers and didn't improve anything else.
There are buildings all around the Frauenkirche, so I couldn't shoot from a greater distance and still get the full tower.
I did use a tripod, but maybe there was still some movement.

I'm sure this subject has some potential, but this shot isn't bringing it out.
First, the centered composition isn't too interesting. Show us some context - for example, is the moon off to one side, or some stars?
Second, it's pretty blurry. You really need to use a tripod or put the camera down to take good night shots. You lose some visual interest because the bricks aren't clear.
Third, the lighting is ... not especially engaging.
Good effort, though - keep shooting and trying different things. :)
The lighting and colors are excellent, but it gives me vertigo to look at it. Something like this should probably be shot from a higher vantage point, or at least farther away. That would help with the focus issues on the top of the tower, too.
