In both of these shots, the majority of the frame is filled with blank, boring sky without even any clouds or stars to give it any points of interest.

Additionally, the night shot looks a little bit tilted. Even if you're sure the horizon is exactly level, the way the city is set up makes it feel off balance when looking at it. Recommend framing so the taller buildings are a bit closer to the edge so there's a little more negative space to counterbalance the positive space on the other side.

Here's my night shot of Barcelona. Not that it shows of any interesting architecture at all, but who cares.

hi, thanks for your advice. It looks much better on the cropped one!

BCN is a nice place to visit rather than to live in. You will find very interesting and beautiful places there and you will enjoy the weather and the food (if you go to right restaurants: stay away from tourist zones).
If you live in BCN you must have a great income because it's a very VERY expensive city.
Services are good: Metro works at time, Ferrocarrils de la Generalitat (Train) also. Renfe (spanish national trains) does not work so good... you're advised.
Metropolitan Bus and Taxi also are efficient.
Crime is not a problem if you don't look like a tourist. Tourists are an easy target for robbers, hijackers, etc...
You may carry your wallet on your front pocket and leave some money hidden on your hotel room.
Look for a three or more stars hotel.
LUCK!! :-)
