Sunset on James Part 2

[TheOcho]

Two additional compositions. Both amped up a bit from the first Sunset on the James I posted earlier. Just trying to find my "inner HDR" as I am a noob. Only post processing in trial version of Photomatix and no Lightroom or PS. As always....comments are welcomed and pointers to get better are always helpful as long as you keep it civil

#1 is my pick.

#1 is my pick although i do like the flare of the sun in the second.
