Wow, a new PB! Thanks for the comments all...I promise not to submit a photo of the Houses of Parliament again, even if it is the only subject I can ribbon with!
This is pretty much the same shot as Ten O'Clock, just a little wider and in monochrome this time. I used Channel Mixer on selective areas to get a different tone for each (water, sky, building, bridge) and help even it out. Also 5 exposures (-2, -1, 0 +1, +2) rather than my usual 3.

The tones on this are just perfect. I love the texture of the reflection in the water. The HDR is definitely not overdone in this one. The blue hue is a nice touch too. My top pick in the challenge.
I REALLY love this image. Excellent use of HDR. Love the colour. Originally gave it a 9 during my voting phase, but I'm bumping it to double figures... you've got the blue ribbon in the bag with this.
Really like this image...very different in the way its been processed with the single-toning. Definitely provides a refreshing change from the over-saturate kaleidoscope of color I've been seeing!
