Hey Rachel,
I like the comp and colors! My only recommendation is to burn in some of the BG elements (house on left....structures near pillars.....bright spots on colums.....thes final touches will make this shine! Very nicely done.
Here's a repost. I set the burn opacity at 30%. Please let me know if you think it is ok, too much or not enough. I also cloned out a couple of the hot spots shining through.
Thanks,
Rachel

I agree with Roman's suggestion to burn in some of the BG details.
Personally, I would consider an even more aggressive approach, and put the lower (non-tower) details into full silhouette.
Thus, the golden light on the tower and the golden light on the (golden) bridge horses would be anchored by a black base, and held gently by the fabulous sky colors.
Nice work maintaining sharpness at 1/100 on a moving boat !
Repost is very nice Rachel, although I would maybe use a bit of noise reduction.
It doesn't need to be tack sharp to me, I like the colors and the mood.
Hey Rachel,
I like the repost....great job! I do find Bill's suggestion intriguing.....go with silhouette on everything.....but the pillars. That might be the best option for the image!
Thanks Roman and thanks for the reminder. I wanted to try Bill's suggestion so here it is and a round of NR as suggested by Dan and Brendan. Let me know what you think.
