I have been experimenting again with stacked ND + ND grad filters and various WB settings. This one used one solid ND2 + 0.9 +0.3 grad with WB set to cloudy.

I love this too! The filter effects increase the contrast between the different segments, giving that 3d feel. Could I ask what the focal length was (I'm thinking of buying a 14mm prime in order to try & take shots like this).
Just a thought on post processing - the wb setting has affected the clouds, giving them a tobacco tinge. Is there a way of removing this colour to make just the clouds a purer white. I feel this would be more realistic and also it would throw emphasis onto the warm tones of the buildings.

Hi Nigel - focal length was 12mm - I use my Sigma 10-20 for all of these shots - perfect lens.I love this too!

Re colour cast in clouds - this is a result of stacking nd grads more than the WB setting - tends to be a magenta cast. I have toned it down as much as I wanted to but it could be De-saturated more -personal pref. I have found Cokin P filters do have a tendency to do this so I am upgrading to a set of hitechs shortly

I like the nice vivid colours and the composition. I also like the the effect of the wide angle lens. Well taken landscape shot.
