One of the dangers of using a neutral density filter is overdoing the effect and causing the foreground to be brighter than the skyline. This typcially looks clearly unnatural and most of the time it's disturbing. In this case, I think it places a bit of emphasis on the what's in the foreground and it's disturbing at all.
