For a start, try to set your WB correctly.
This is around dusk timing, so try to use daylight WB or Auto WB. As the sky turn darken, switch to Auto WB.

Thank Francis for your comment, I realize that the problems is not the WB, it was actually the monitor was not calibrated according. I have recently calibrated. Hope to post a better night scene photograph.

Work on your composition.No visual impact whatsoever.

Do you really like your pictures? What makes you posting them here? What do you think you have done well? Where do you think you can do better? About what would you like to get further input?
There are plenty of such pictures here and a few of them are really good. Compare your versions, maybe try to copy those you really like without asking "What settings / lens have you used?"

For your information, I m on the learning cycles of the night photography, whom r not a pro or anything else. As for photoshop, I m still in the beginners learning stages.R u saying that I should not pose the picture here,Or! it is only for ppl who r good. Then how do u know that I have not ask any pointer from ppl? How about u teaching me how to shoot and give me your advices then. I hope there is no hard feeling.Only trying to be honest and straight.

I'm also honest and straight. Check these questions I gave you, find the answers for yourself. If you cannot give answers to yourself how can you expect others to give comments? Secondly: if you don't have any answer then your picture has no meaning, regardless what it shows. And at least for you the picture must have a meaning, right?
I'm not discouraging you from posting any pictures, please do as you like. But if you want to learn something then start thinking about the picture even before you press the shutter or before you post the image. Intention, story and composition are the main points of any image, together with shooting skills, post-processing and others. So another question could be: Why have you taken these pictures? What do you want to show or emphasize?
No worries, I have started at the same point as you are. But apart from the technical details (e.g. about White Balance) the most important question still is "Why this picture?" Enjoy shooting

try to use the rule of third

 

[kingfishers]

It is everyman dreams to make perfect of a picture. There is the point that I m shooting this picture as to compare to others of theirs art works. Where can I find others comparison should I not shooting the same images. In what ways can I know my mistakes should I not posting in this thread. I had been changing Aperture from F 8 -F10 in 12", also F 16 with 30" respectively in order to distinguish the shooting behavior of my cam.Further to that: Spyder 3 had already been installed into my monitor to reflect the actual screen when processing the images. Noted, not at all times, the shooting are of same speed and aperture. I must know how walk before I can run ,Am I right? It is off course, double yummy and good for me should the senior like u or so Call pro to advise and correct my mistakes. Yours understanding is my gaining. Let shoot more and posted more into this forum and get more comment on my pictures.:lovegrin:

There's still something wrong with the white balance I believe. Do you find that the lights look unnatural?

Maybe you could share with us your post processing workflow on this
