Dawn with my new/refurbished 18-105mm lens

I took this cityscape photo this morning at dawn using my new/refurbished Nikkor 18-105mm f/3.5-5.6G VR ED AF-S DX lens.
Any advise to improve the photo would be appreciated! My settings were;
ISO-200
f/3.5
1/80seconds
@18mm

I like it. You picked a good time of day to shoot. I like they way that it appears to be day, but you still have nice reflections of the city lights in the water. The light reflecting off glass building in the center is a nice touch.

The only two things I would offer are perhaps doing some work in post to bring out the contrast in the clouds a little more. As it is, the sky is a little bland. There's only so much you can do about that though. I might also consider a little perspective correction. It's a little obvious in that the building on the right edge and the flagpoles on the left edge appear to be leaning in a little.
