Eureka Tower

I guess that these really shouldn't be here. They were both taken with a Fuji S9500 that I won. Not, may I add, by my photographic skills, but in a lucky draw. I had been considering buying a P&S to carry around when I didn't want to take the D70. It is bigger than a P&S, in fact almost the same size as a DSLR. But. it will do me as a second camera, and, as it didnt cost me anything, IF anything should happen to it, it wont be the end of the world.
Anyhow, here are 2 views of the Eureka Tower at Southbank. They were taken in the camera's 'Chroma' mode, which increases the blues & greens. The sky does look polarised, but it is the effect of the camera. I quite like it. It would not do for all scenes, but for something like this, I think it works.

I agree with mark, the first is good, but the second the OOF doesn't help it. :(

Seems like the WB is changing, a bit skew-if in the second I think and the OOF also does it's bit too, like the bold color in the first though...

Thanks for the replies. I wasn't to sure about whether the 2nd pic was sharp enough or not. I have removed it, and made the 1st one slightly smaller.
The S9500 is a 9MP camera, so the pics are larger that then D70's. Have to remember that if I post anymore from it. :)
