Beautiful images - hard to choose between the two. Can't make up my mind as to whether the second small vessel adds or detracts. I like the appearance of the boat (nice detail in the wood and lettering) and threatening clouds in the second image. Not sure if this is due to your processing? I'm sure it was an amazing trip!   Posted: 09/10/2023 04:23:09

Hi Jack,
You seem to have a great trip to Southeast Asian countries: Cambodia, Vietnam, and now Thailand! I wish to see more of these images since I have not had a chance to visit them again for so long.
For the image, I like the one you presented above because it has 3 boats: 2 at rest and 1 is traveling. It makes the image more interesting! The angle you shot is well done that all the boats have a little separation with the water line.
For some reasons, I feel that the color and sharpness of the original 2 is better. I'd prefer to enhance color and sharpen the above image a bit more. Nice shot!   Posted: 09/15/2023 00:38:01

Hi, Jack, it's great that you get to travel so much--and use your camera! #2 seems to be sharper. However, #1 has the extra boat in it which adds to the image.   Posted: 09/17/2023 16:26:20
