    I am mainly here to learn, I'm pretty new at photography so please don't be afraid to say whatever you need to if you're critiquing my photos, and take my composition advice with an extra grain of salt

    Beautiful shots. I can think of much to comment on except that in the first one maybe if you could have gotten it where the sun was just breaking the clouds to have a little more light on the city to highlight it. The second is a nice photo, but to me it really doesn't pop and stand out. It is a nice shot, but it is a pretty plain shot.

    I think I like the first one the best. Clue me in tho, does the sky have a curved look to it because of wide angle? Good job, oh, and btw, I like your signature - I can definitely relate.

    I like the first one-mostly. There isn't enough cityscape detail on my monitor and there really isn't anything in the foreground at all.

    The second image is just too dark overall.

    Do you have a graduated neutral density filter? That would allow you to get some detail in the foreground while correctly exposing the sky.
    No, I DON'T need that.
