The Istanbul light (need some C&C)

Hi everyone!
I did my best for this one, but it looks like the picture can be better, but I can't understand what to improve. Any C&C are welcome!

look into luminosity masking you can do a ton to bring out the best parts of the photo look at greg benz and sean bagshaw on youtube

Oh, luminosity masks are already there! :)

wow...then i would make adjustments to the city itself the sky looks good i wouldn't touch that. the city gets a bit washed out probably due to the brightness of the sun i did just watch a tutorial that had a similar issue

it is true that the image seems to be lacking a bit of contrast... I did some global adjustments in Adobe Camera Raw. Another step would be to just adjust the city with a gradient.
(unfortunately the ACR screenshot is in German but I think you will figure it out):
