I like the detail and composition of the second, the color of the skyline in the 3rd is great :!:

Impressive detail on that bridge shot Peter!

To me, the skyline shot has a little too much sky - not sure. You gotta love that blue on the water though eh!

Peter,
I love the composition and the black/white contrast of no. 2; no. 3 is pretty, but I think it's missing a real point of interest.

Great shots Peter, I'd say my order of preference is 1, 2, 3.

The first I really like the menacing tower, and you caught the moon too.

#2 I like this one, stark bones in the black of night

#3 While I like something, I think there is too much blue.. that or the water is just a little too rough... (I still wish I too it :lol: but I think you could of done better).

Thanks one and all for your comments

Craig - I like #1 the best too. I like the dramatic off centre tower and the way it's balanced by that tiny sliver of moon and a star

Hey stubbsy, Number 1 is the 1, is has that industrial feel to it and the perspective is nice as well

I agree with Jethro, like that #1 shot, really has that conglomerate, almost over-powering corporate feel...

Hey stubbsy, the shots are great! I like the third one the best.

May be its me, but the 1st one looks as though the building is leaning back.

Too windy for your Gitzo????

Nice pics Peter. I like the tower pic best but the bridge holds some interesting interest and appealing appeal too.
