A unique perspective I thought.What do you think?
Image 1. 1/10th @ F/22
I adjusted the contrast,mid tone to bring that sky to the center stage.
Image 2.Shot at f/18 , unedited.
Do you think #1 is too dark? I'm here to learn.
Thanks,
Rick

#1 is good, a bit too dark or not enough detail in the dark areas yeah. Another thing that distracts me is the 2nd opening in the far right of this shot. I see sky and trees there as well.
#2 is awesome. Really love it. There's the far right bit here too, but you can easily crop that out along with some of the top to keep the ratio. What I really like about this is that the sky is perfectly exposed and that there's lots of detail in the shadows. It gives a great feeling of what it was like to be in that tunnel or under that bridge, looking out. Great lines and accent colours as in the green lights and the red of the breaks of that one car. Overall very nice.
P.S. the sky in the first one turned out excellent as well. If you can give that sorta treatment to the sky in the second without losing all the shadow details it'll be that much better IMO.

I agree with Liban....if you could crop out some of the right side, and bring up more of the dark in the bottom of the shot, you'd really have something. Nice capture and perspective.
