Welcome to TL, Raymond, and this is a lovely image to introduce yourself with.

A classic b/w citscape with some lovely cloud cover adding to the atmosphere. It's clean, sharp and well composed. I wonder a little about a slight crop from the top to make the city itself more prominent, but the shot is still good as it stands. Welcome again :-)

Hi Raymond,

you managed to take superb photo of the city scenery despite being terrified of heights. Mine would be probably most blurry as a result of great dizzines.
I love the sepia treatment that makes it timeless and stresses more the character of the city of high build structures and no greenery.
Clouds above create excellent dramatic touch and make otherwise very impressive structures made by human look quite small in comparison to what natures creates.
All in all great photo.

Wellcome to TL,
Jeri

Hello Ray, and WELCOME TO TL!!! :)
It seems like the camera helped you overcome your fear and gave you wings for this aerial view! The b&w conversion gave a timeless character to the shot which suits really well this type of image.
Speaking in terms of composition you did well, although cropping more from the sky would've resulted in a more horizontal, panoramic aspect of the image and would've enforced the perspective lines.
You also did a great job on the exposure and sharpness of the image.
Maybe it wouldn't be a bad idea to include also exif data with your future postings, you will find that doing it you'll benefit from great feedback.
Well, having said that I salute you and hope to see some more from you!
Keep up the good work,
Diana
