Darb great shot that works for me......... but if I was to make a choice it would be the second pix but I would like to see a bit more contrast in the sky.......ps you have a very good web site

Darb out of your two shots I prefer the second one as the violet tones of the sky and the texture of the earth forms just more pleasant to my eye.

I like the second, not sure why, I love the Ocean Rd, would give anything to be in Bells Beach this Saturday for surfing comp but alas cannot make it.

The second oen seems to grab me much quicker than the first... Dunno if it's "accurate" but the color treatment seems to make the sun rays stand out more and the apsotles seem to almost glow...

Better tonal range in shot 2 - more pleasing to look at. I find the first one a litle dull (still nice though)!! Well done. I would hang this on my wall!!

yeah the 12 apostles doesnt strike me as a market to sell pics ! ... though i dont sell prints in any case :) ... did a vic trip and had to do the obligatory 12 apostles shot, among other off-the-beaten track things :) (omeo highway and alpine way from khancoban, THAT was fun!)
