I took this with a point and shoot in the fall of 2012. I'm really just starting to use editing software and I'm afraid I've started to get a little overboard with it.

Please let me know what you think, overall composition as well as technical.

Welcome to the forum!

Lovely image but I'm not quite sure of the question? Image looks fine, perhaps a little dark for some but certainly acceptable. In the final analysis, it is your vision - what others think is generally irrelevant.

It would help if you could post the SOOC image so the viewer could see what edits have been applied.

Regards,

Bob

Mostly the saturation and highlights. Half the time I start playing with the levels and end up having to reset the photo to the original a few times before I get it to a point I think it looks good. By then I wonder if my eye has become a little askew.

Some of the clouds are slightly hot, otherwise it looks just fine to me.

Agreed.
I would lean to a slightly lighter version, but it is a matter of taste.

Did you selectively adjust the clouds? It seems like there is some slight halos against the trees on the right? Very faint though...

I think the saturation amount is fine. Doesn't look overdone.
I think your biggest struggle here is the bright sun behind the buildings on the left.
Amsterdam canals are a great place to wander around for photo ops.
