What do you think of the post processing and the composition? Comments welcome.

Please note I experimented with the post processing...I have a lot of different ways I can make this pic look... I just have to find what is most appealing. Its all trial and error.

The first one is a bit too green; the color balance is the second is much more pleasing.

I like #2 as well. Better colors and crop.

First one is too green, second one is too magenta. Crop looks the same in both, but I like it, nice cinematic feel. I would try and sort out the verticals a bit, especially on the far left. Shame about that overhead wire.

Terrific capture - I don't mind the wire at all, but I do agree that the first is too green and the second to magenta. Still, a great catch.

Thanks for input given. I use everything people say so I can learn. Feedback is good. I am brand new to light room. I bought a few books on it but haven't been able to read them yet. I am trying more than anything to train my eye.

I agree with the others.... too green and magenta, but nice photo and composition. One thing I'd suggest - a slightly slower shutter speed to make the motorcyclists blurry. That would add some interesting contrast to the scene, and the sharply focused buildings will stand out. But that's just a matter of taste.
