Overall the first - because the sky makes for a much more dramatic composition.
The third shot shows that the X70 certainly produces some pleasingly sharp and saturated photographs.
The picture using the 16-45 is a little lifeless in comparison. Shame given that out of the three, the 16-45 is the only one I've got!

I like what the K7 does with the sky.

No 1 for me, its the sky, shame as I have only got the 16-45 lens on a K10d.

Hardly seems fair really, the 10mm sky will always look more dramatic than the 16mm one.
The sky in the Sigma shot is much more blue/violet than the Pentax one. Is that all down to the Pentax colours or is it possible the polariser was not quite at the same angle?
