I prefer the second one, the silhouttes look well. The first one is well taken but lacks a bit of drama, perhaps some eye contact would have helped it.
I like the second one best too, the lighting at the time draws you in more. It’s quite atmospheric.
I think in #1 if you were closer it would have worked better.
Yeah I guess the 1st is a little boring/static/lacking in drama. Ihave a closer crop which may work a little better.
I straightened up the second quite a bit so glad ye didn’t have any negative comments about the horizon. Wasn’t sure which looked right as it was quite an extreme rotation.
Sometimes I wonder if I must have been extremely drunk when I see how skewed my pictures can be.
