This is quite the image for a single shot so close to the city. Looks great.

This was 195 minutes of single shot color with a QHY8 camera. Acquired and stacked in Nebulosity. Processed in CS2. I am not really happy with the light pollution in the image. I did use an Astronomik CLS filter and that did help along with Russell Croman's Gradient Xterminator but I guess being 20 miles from Manhattan is not so good - lol...
