Wow! this is just beautiful, very nice detail and love the morning light
I didnt realise anyone from Auckland was on this site
I live in Hamilton, Good luck with the challenge!
I really like this photo. Great composition with the boats in the front and the cityscape in the back. Is it a hazy day? The photo seems washed out above the boats. Would like to see more saturation in the colors. Overall: 8
What a great shot. Speaking strictly as the guide book editor, I would request the following post processing. Clone the little flags (or whatever they are) off the top of all the masts. Where a mast protrudes into the skyline, and it can't really be linked to what boat it is from, remove it. Where a mast cuts a major building in the horizon in half, remove it. There. Now you can be on the cover! Nice, nice work. Good luck!! 9

Oh my - what wonderful lighting. My only minor suggestion would be to tip the camera down slightly - for less sky and a bit more of the reflection. My prediction - Ribbon.
very fun photo, although i'm not sure that all the space you left for the water in the front was necessary as the real attraction isn't the reflection on the water of the masts, but the cunfusion in the skyline given by the masts.
Rather brutally centred composition, in the vertical plane, without the eye-catching effect to make it useful. Like the balance of vertcal lines though, and the prominence of the needle thing. Competent shot, but lacking in impact - largely, i think because of that compositional thing.
This is cool with the buildings in the background and the almost monotone colors. I Nice shot. The one spire type building just right of center really grabs my attention.
