Rotate CCW, cropped, increase saturation and sharpen the buildings.

Looking at old files I came across this one. It was on of the night where many people were looking up at the sky, people phoned one another, DJ broadcasted it on the radio. Surely lots of people were taking photo that night, here was the one from my balcony, lucky that it was clear sky that night.

All comments and suggestions are welcome.

Hi Thanaboon,
Nice capture. I find it interesting that the light noise from the city is wiping out all of the stars, just leaving the two planets and the moon. I have never seen such an unusual configuration. You might have tried a slightly shorter exposure. It would reduce the light noise, But I am not sure that It would improve on the impact of the image.
Thank you for sharing.
Clive

Good overall detail and cool sky !!! For these type I always like to bracket exposure to pick afterwards !!! ... love the shooting perch, buildings are all square !!!
