    Well, I dreamed I saw the silver spaceships flying......

    A cropped version - is this better? - I'm not sure.

    Great song and the photos aren't too shabby either

    Which is better? Hmmm. I've switched between them and I initially preferred the first due to the height but then realised all that lovely height was taking my eyes out of the scene. The second, on the other hand, keeps the eye in the scene and leads it to the 'impact point'. Giving it due consideration, then, I think I prefer the second. Or the first... Hmmm

    Cheers,
    John

              I actually prefer the first, even though the sky is blown. It adds to the overall feel of the shot

                      Interesting shots, I have been scrolling up and down for a while to see which I prefer, eventually thought that #2, reason being that the top part of #1 is just that bit too bright for me and a bit distracting.

                      Hope that makes sense, but just an opinion

                      Regards Paul

                        Thank you for commenting Paul - opinion seems to be slightly in favour of the crop - it is always interesting to see how images are regarded by different folks.
