Long exposures make me embarassed by how dirty my sensor is :oops: Need to clean the first one up a little i think.

I prefer the second because of the colors and the lighting of the boats (nice fill!). I suppose you could have included more sky so that you follow the rule of "3rds" etc but this still works. Would be nice to see the second one larger, or on black.

Do my mean larger - in pixels - and on black just with a border?

my vote is for the second picture.

the color is good with nice cloud reflection on the water.

nice mood and capture!

The second image is definitely the pick of the two. The colours are sublime and the lovely smooth texture of the harbour aids it magnificently as does the reflections of the clouds. I am not sure if it's me or not but the horizon does seem a bit off-level by about 0.25 degrees to the right.

I agree with the others - image #2 is the better of the two. The problem (for me) with #1 is the slice of building on the left and to a lesser extent the palm tree in the park. My eye is drawn to the edge of the frame by those elements rather than focusing on the rest of the image. I think the image would be stronger with, at the least, the building cropped out.

Andy, I meant bigger than what's shown here. At a least 800 pixels which is the forum limit. Even a link to a larger image elasewhere if possible.
