how to improve photo

Hi, I took this against a window at a hotel. ..it was an open appeture and slow shutter speed, but braced myself against a window and hoped for the best. How would you have improved this shot? What improvements would you make in Photoshop to this photo? JOY

I agree..the lights are great and you did a good job without shaking the camera. I would'nt change a thing.

Joy, I was thinking the same thing too, like it as it is. Nice capture.

Great capture Joy!

Overall I don't think there is anything to do to improve it. The exposure is good for both the building lights and the sky. A difficult capture, especially that time in the evening when the lighting is changing within just a few short minutes.

If there was just one thing I could suggest. There seems to be just a faint tinge of sunset color in the clouds. If you could boost the saturation in the sky a bit, you might be able to bring it out a little more.

Otherwise great shot.
