The wide nature of this shot works a treat! Great work Martin

Great shot. I like the lighting on the buildings and the calmness of the water. I have to wonder what this would be like turned panoramic by taking just the middle 2 thirds(ish) only......

Thanks for the comments.

@Adrian: that is an option, but I like the colour gradients in the water and the sky, and cropping the top and bottom would lose some of that gradient.

That turned out really nice. I really like the way that the water turned out with the 4 second shutter speed.
