Amado -

I agree with Sharookh , and add that #1 only misses because the ship is too bright.

Amado - Both are excellent but no. 1 has that classic "50's postcard" feel to it (hope you're ok with that analogy) -- the colors are punchy and the aquamarine tones take me back to the late 50s and early 60s. But I also like the subject in the foreground and for reasons I can't quite explain, she looks a bit overwhelmed by the ship's size, a completely appropriate sentiment given its size. All in all, I really like the image. And to Stuart's comment about brightness, I agree, a touch darker would help. Thanks for sharing this.

Your in a beautiful place. Wipe out some of that weord blue in #2 and you have one of my favorite skys. The light is BLINDING down there, but the colors are spectacular.

Hi Amado,
What a fine images you have made.
The first shows how large this ship is. The second
made me smile and gives a nice holiday feeling.
Thanks,
Ruben

Gentlemen,

Thank you all very much for your time! Always appreciated.

Ruben---We were on 'holiday'!

Mark---No worries, thanks for your words! A classic "50's" postcard I can definitely deal with!

Stuart---That ship is awfully white. and in that sun...but I will take your suggestion for printing, thank you.

Ben---thank you, I thought something looked off...

Number 2 is obvious a winner, Amado, but it is also a thing of DOF.
Number 1 is more subtile, I like it more
