Nice go Ronald - interesting viewpoint.

If I could give a couple of tips to improve this..

1. Shoot in the 'blue hour' - in other words when there is still a little light in the sky. For example the photo next to yours in the gallery. The plain black sky has no interest - however with a bit of colour you get a far more interesting shot and clearer skyline.
2. The horizon is tilted!! Quite a lot!! Make sure your tripod is level (you can get a small spirit level for a few $s that sits in the flash hotshoe of your camera..
3. As you have used a tripod I would suggest using the camera in manual mode - set a smaller aperture such as f16 and then take a few shots with varying shutter speeds and see what comes out best!! This will give smooth water with great reflections and the light points in the picture become starlike..

Hope this helps - hope to see some more of your shots.
