Nice... I love the second one...something a bit different but very interesting. Perhaps a little too contrasty.

Vince, as cliched as it is, you've produced a brilliant image for #1. I even like the slight tilt to the image. Not a big fan of #2 though - too much white.

Vince, like no 1 and liked your recent post of a couple in a windowsill. I think no 2 is a bit too phallic. The building dominates and the couple are an intrusion, in my opinion. Nothing ventured, nothing gained

Vince I have to agree with Glen about #2 the couple don't feature in the shot enough and are overpowered by the towering phallic. I do think it was a worth experimentation just one that didn't work (at least for me).
#1 Is interesting, I'm torn between liking it and being annoyed by the background.. I'm undecided about it.

Lighting and bokeh is really spectacular for no. 1.

Both of these shots are tremendous, different angles make for memorable photos.

#1 is my fav....capture with D200 + 50mm F1.4 (love this lens) all available lighting

Thanks Glen

True about the building dominating. The couple wanted CBD building images of Sydney.
