Over the last couple of weeks I've been trying to get out late a get some shots after the Sun has gone down, instead of in the middle of the day like I normally do!

I've edited the photo's in Elements, playing around with blend-modes to emphasise the colurs and tones.

Thoughts?

Thanks, Rob.

Unfortunately in the bottom one, the eye of the viewer wanders around trying to figure out what we are looking at.

The top one has great colour but not a centre of interest with impact and the wire across the bottom is visually distracting as well.

Take a look at some of the tips on this site on compostion.

I actually like the bottom shot better. I like the curve of the building but i think it's not standing out against the background enough IMO.

Hope that helps,

Marko

Both are very nice, I really like the second shot, think how it is framed and the colours work well.

I like the second one. I like it's graphic qualities and the color of it.
Both are nice, though! :)
