 I went downtown (note north american friendly language :P) the other day to try and find something to shoot for this challenge. I wasn't particularly happy with any of the shots I got at the time, but after getting home and bumping the contrast of this shot that attitude changed.

Aside from the contrast adjustment, I spent quite a while cloning out all the lights that could be seen through the glass. I really like the texturised appearance the cloud reflections give the glass but I fully expect that won't go down too well with all the voters. Still, I think it gives the image some more depth, so I resisted the temptation to noise ninja the bejesus out of it.

Oh, I am so glad you made this diagonal - that's what gives it its 'pop'. The colors are soothing and just in general this is a very good composition.
