Tokyo Cityscape. Taken from my hotel room, looking towards Ginza, Tokyo Tower and onwards to Shibuya.
[UPDATE] To all that have asked whether this is an HDR. It is not. The shot is taken at the right time (called the Blue Hour - when the light is just perfect.) THanks for your comments. :-)
Best shot I've seen on a blog in quite some time! Mark H @ 08-20-2009
WOW! Quite stunning. Michael Dougan @ 08-20-2009

This is really nice. What time of day was it? Davin Greenwell @ 08-20-2009
Absolutely amazing. Looks like a scene from a sci fi movie. It's unreal! You should be very proud of this one. Bob Towery @ 08-20-2009
Fantastic, the sky is perfect. And I love the sense of wideness in the shot, yet it's nothing but tall buildings across the frame! SD (Aspherical) @ 08-20-2009
Excellent! Wonderful blue tones and light. Wonderful sky. A perfect shot. Love it. pernilla @ 08-21-2009
Grandeur buildings! I commend the one who took the picture. Another thing, if you are in vacation either in the US, Mexico, or Spain, Keshot will entertain your needs and have them get memories of your tours and vacations and send your pics to your love ones or family throughout the world. Keshot @ 08-21-2009
Brilliant colours and depth. Love the cool blue cast. Shawn F @ 08-21-2009
Tokyo as I'd never seen it before! Incredible! It's impressive man, impressive! Jaol @ 08-21-2009
Well that's Tokyo, the Tokyo i remember from a now distant week spent there. Great job! PixeLuz @ 08-21-2009
It's amazing how many details you have captured in this frame, and the cool blue hue combined with the warmth of the city lights gives it a very ominous feeling. Claus Petersen @ 08-21-2009
Very impressive image. I like all the blue. sherri @ 08-21-2009
Wow, this is really stunning, striking and awe-inspiring! The patchwork of buildings plays perfectly against the sky, with the red tower forming a focal point, stopping the image from just becoming a pattern. Interesting ordered rows of lights, and well captured red lights framing the tower-blocks. The washed-out areas in the bottom corners look a bit odd though, but a contrast punch would sort that out. Anyway, great image, dramatic sky! Wow :] John @ 08-21-2009
beautiful capture. really nice. Otto K. @ 08-21-2009
I've said it elsewhere and I'll say it again - a real stunner this one with some great drama - superb job! David H-W @ 08-21-2009

A beautiful and very effective cityscape. I especially like how the clouds seem to converge in the distance much like the city street do. Fine image. don @ 08-22-2009
Very nice! Great exposure! Nice angle and a great sky! Laurens Kuipers @ 08-31-2009
