Strong graphic interpretation. Too bad you clipped the tip of the tallest building. I would also go easier on the saturation, particularly blue. Just a little bit more space in the sky and water wouldn't hurt either, helping the image to "breathe."

Very saturated image.  Probably look better toned down a bit so its not shouting at me.

I don't mind the (over)saturated look, as NY is a city that "shouts".

Thanks for all the feedback. I agree the water is a little overly blue (I was lazy not to tone each individual color). However I was aiming for an over saturated look as the colors are pretty crazy that evening. the brick buildings were almost lit red by the sun.
