Hi Chris.

The depth is lovely. The only pity is that it has a little bit noise.

Olá Chris, great view over Nagasaki. This kind of images allways makes one think how small we are. The blue effect, problably from the 'blue hour', makes an interesting contrast with the lights and gives a poetic mood. Beautiful.
Cheers,
Ricardo

Hello Chris,
Very moody blue ;-) Nice composition but seems to lack sharpness to me.

Hi Chris,
the light in the blue is wonderful, but where is it from?
Good POV over the the city which is spreaded between the hills. I like the river in the curve through the photo.
Cheers, Ulf

Good night time shot, with the lights of the city mixing well with the fading natural light of the sky, making this a very blue city, which is appropriate. Interesting note as well.

Hi Chris. This place has such a sad history but it's good to see it in such splendor today. You had an excellent atmosphere for this one. You might be able to increase the sharpness. Nicely done Chris.

Hi Chris, Good high POV of this famous city. Famous for the wrong reason i guess but has its place in history. The blue you have caught and shown is very effective. Good of the city lights and showing the extensive habour. Murray.
