First off, these are cool photos that I wouldn't normally see. my take on them....
#1. This is a really interesting photograph and I think I would have tried to adjust the background a bit to make the figures stand out more. I would have also framed it so the feet were not cropped off like there are now. Otherwise cool photo.
#2. Love the texture, excellent water capture and great flag placement. No suggestions :thumbup: :thumbup:
