Nice, though saturation and sharpening are above the limit IMO

Beautiful composition. Ruined by too much post processing.

A classic view (and not the only version of this iconic skyline in this challenge) and Im torn on the processing. On one hand I like the candy colored old timey postcard feel, but it looses some of the depth in the image. The brig's fore mast is almost lost against the buildings, and the towers that make up the skyline are flattened out, and the yellow on the building on the left is jarring against the overall blue tone. If you had brought up the black point, it might separate the two tones a bit more.

I know it sounds like Im picking on the image, but I really like it and given the direction you went, I think it works. Top five

Wonderful colors in a skyline that you just don't see all that colorful often. I really enjoy this.
