This has been a big disappointment. I can't believe some of the images that scored above me.
A lot of time and effort went into the execution of this entry and it remains one of my best irregardless of the score.

Jamie, as you and I both know, there is a lot of inequity in the voting process. However, we are powerless when it comes to the scoring of our entries. We do the best we can to capture good images but if the non-participants decide it's not to their liking, there's not a whole lot we can do about it.
Wow, Jo....this is such a beatiful shot and well excuted! I don't "get" how one city night shot can win a ribbon while another one (this one) can score so much lower??? To me, this was as well shot as the ribbon winner and certainly not explainable as to the difference in scores?? It's beyond me and I think that you were robbed score wise. Seems that the "non-participants" had a hand in pulling down this score. Then, again, non-participants may not understand the difficulty in getting such a shot.
I really like the texture of the water and the way the reflections bring it out. I'm an astronomy buff, so I like that I can see Orion hanging in the sky. Pretty hard to preserve the stars with all the light from the skyline. Well done on that.
