I'm torn Peter. On the one had I think it's a ravishing and very compelling beauty with wonderful definition. I.e. I like it very much! Nice work!

On the other hand, with my well known imaging contest judge's hat on, it looks over saturated ... or is that under saturated, doesn't respect the light, is too dark, is too contrasty, is too blue, is too (insert your favourite critique here) ... But, you'll be pleased to hear, I will refrain from doing a "very simple" tweak in PS to correct your mistakes!
Hey Marcus....

Well... I did say I went bonkers on the colour saturation...aka despite "hoon legislation" that tut-tut's at spinning the wheels on the Ferrari,
letting off some steam occasionally can be good for the soul.

That said I would not rate this "Las Vegas neon" version too highly if asked to judge it at the Malins....and lord knows, IIS is not the Malins.

That said, the data is there and just a few tweaks are all that is needed for
a more "respectful" version.
