Nice colours, nice compo, nice area <> nice picture!
You might crop a little sky, which puts the focus a bit more on the sunset itself. Keep the dark blue though at the top though.

Yeah would have been even better taken landscape. Still a very nice picture.

Nope, if I had taken more landscape you would see an ugly hotel and a part of a building site

I wanted to have a lot of sky on this one to try to get something new, since I've taken quite some similar pictures from that location (10 meters from my bedroom at home ).
Here is another shot I took from that spot (with my old camera):

WHAT? 10 meters from your bedroom!! thats it you being taken off my buddy list

I have to say the main reason I like the 1st shot is because there is a lot of sky in it, despite there being nothing in the sky it just adds to the photo

Both of them are beautiful images! What an incredible sight to be able to see from so close to your home.

Here's wishing you a belated welcome to the forum.
