That first one is marvellous, Alan. Lots of detail and great dynamic range.
Best wishes,

Andrew

Love the first one. It's obvious that you took a great deal of care over the composition!

Cheers Tom

The second one is very, very good, but the first is an outright winner. I don't think any other comments are necessary!

Second one for me. Awesome dynamic range and good subject with great leading lines. The lifebelt is so distracting in the first shot.

Both super images but I'll go with Gary and give #1 the vote, the lifebelt leads the eye away from the distant view.
Cheers

Both stunning shots. The first one is a real beauty.

2nd one for me, like the leading lines and the slight flare from the sun.

Both up to your usual high standard Alan!

I prefer the tones and general composition of #1.. but would probably like it even more without the lifebouy

These are very good indeed, I wish my somewhat jaded eyes could see such things in my local surroundings

I only wish that the figure from the second was in the first

I like the 1st one.... Nice wide-angle view.
Did you by chance take a 35-50mm standard lens
view as well?
