Taken about an hour after sunset at the University of South Africa (UNISA). This is my favourite spot for taking night photos (Free Study 2007-06 was also taken here). I used a 3 stop graduated neutral density filter to balance the sky and the city lights. Taken at 18mm.

There doesn't seem to be much going on here. It looks a lot like a test shot. Night in the city is always beautiful, to translate that to a photograph requires a little bit more.
Nice shot - Like the tones - Nice clouds - I think cropping off all that uninteresting foreground would really make this a stronger image. Right up to the very base of the bride on the left.
