Khaled -- this shot is very simple. I am wondering what time you shot this one? What does the colour version looks like? Just curious...

Hi Khaled,

May I welcome you to CiC as I don't think we have conversed before.

I like the composition and exposure of your shot.

I have one minor suggestion which I would do if the shot were mine ...

The camera is slightly pointed up, although since the perspective distortion (leaning in to centre of verticals) is so small that I probably wouldn't bother to 'correct' them.
However, if you look at the nearest corner of the closest building, it leans a bit to the left, so my suggestion is to rotate the shot slightly clockwise to make that edge parallel to the edge of frame.

Hope that helps, Dave

Khaled,
This is a beautiful image. The contrast between the formal structure of the buildings and the moody sky is interesting. Could I suggest you try a slight reduction in brightness? I think the foreground, is a bit washed out.

Nice conversion.

I like the simplicity of the shot. Clean simple lines.

I love this image! I played with it just a bit using NIK Viveza, primarily with a global increase in structure (quite a bit) and a global decrease in brightness (just a tiny bit). Then, I selected the foreground using control points and increased the structure (again quite a bit)...

I hope you don't object to my posting this image. We usually accept posting of edited images because it is a lot easier to show changes than just describe them.
I will, of course, remove the image if you object to the posting.
