i totally love what you did with blue sky in the cropped version. wicked intense color contrast.
but i think i like the uncropped view, because in the cropped version i was thinking "what a shame those light reflections in the water are cut off like that."
seriously, (from an extreme amateur point of view here), i don't mind the stone wall in the uncropped version. it only lends perspective, besides allowing the fabulous full reflections of those lights on the water.
overall, i think there's a better balance in the uncropped one.
i'd sure love to see the uncropped one with the wonderful saturated colors of your cropped rendition.
it's unfortunate that in the original that blockish thing on the right with the poster on it is leading the eye off to the right, but if you'd crop it out on the right edge, then you'd lose that wonderful foreground streetlight.
after too any words... thanks for sharing that lovely scene.
your pics makes me want to be there right now!
