You forgot to straighten the horizon.
Nicely done otherwise.

Also add some more negative space on the bottom!

I uploaded by mistake an original image, not straightened one.
When it comes to negative space, you might be right, but during composing this shot my main concearn was to not include concrete surrounding reflective pool. I shot and processed it loong before generative fill and AI made it so easy to remove unwanted elements from pictures.
I always planned to reshoot it with better camera and lens, but 5 times I went for it something always prevented me. Scuffolding on the dome, or part of building, or only half of dome was lit, or whole area was closed for access, or heavy rain started.

beautiful nightshot with lovely water reflection and visual clarity

Beautiful work!

I now have a better idea of what my image from here should have looked like....instead of all the "construction wrap" that was on the building.

Thank you! I hope they finally done with construction, so I can redo it properly to my current standards.
