Default City Skyline

i took this shot with a Nikon p90, and a little bit of color enhancement. I just wanted a little bit of critique on it...so any help would be great

I think you should cut off some of the top. The sky isn't very interesting. You could also replace the sky with a different sky.

The picture looks good opened in a new tab.

Is the horizon straight? It looks a little curved to me.

Sometimes an interesting cloud pattern will help the sky. There is a lot of open space which pulls my eye a bit.

I agree that there is too much "uninteresting" sky here. You could try to solve this without pasting a new sky or attaching clouds to it making a panoramic crop of the image, because the blue hue is sooo nice!

IMHO, of course...

Actually, I like the sky....perhaps a b/w would make it slightly more interesting, but the abstract nothingness also provides some intrigue.

I agree, straighten the photo and crop some of the sky.. I love the fading colors and how bright the colors are but a little less would be better
