    I am learning LR 5 and I used it to PP these photos. C & C are welcome.

    Nice efforts, which do you prefer? I like the second edit best probably because it is the most realistic, however I have been known to get a bit theatrical in an edit or two.

    It would be interesting to see the original unedited version for comparison.

    John,

    I agree with you. #2 is more realistic.

    Binnur,

    I agree with you. However, too sad to say that many people here like the overdone version.

    Geoff F,

    The original version (I have adjusted the colour balance for #4, #5 & #6 and added a cross effect for #6 from my camera):-

    Hi Leslie, to me, #4 has the most potential assuming that you didn't take bracketed exposures at the time. The lights in the windows add considerable interest to the skyline. I would likely take it about half way to where #1 is.

    Are you using global adjustments, or masking and layers to change specific elements in the image?

    Frank,

    I didn't take bracketed exposure. Since I am very new to LR5, I didn't do any change to specific elements. Thank you for viewing and your very helpful advice.
