Gorgeous :)

I find myself thinking compositionaly I should like the second one more as it's seems to follow all the right rules and have good balance and have less elements for simplicity but I can't help being drawn back to the first. I would not mind having the first one hanging on my wall.

Great work!

I love both but if I must choose my vote goes for the second one. Both because of the composition and the colours.

Why are the colours different in both pictures BTW? Is that just a compression issue or did you process them differently?

Absolutely fantastic - they really pop off the screen. I prefer the first one of the 2 images but only marginally.

Thanks for all the kind words.

Were you there yesterday (monday)?.
Yeah, Monday.
I went up for the sunrise on the Buachaille but it was a bit disappointing.
The weather improved as the day went on.

Why are the colours different in both pictures BTW?
Two reasons.

1. I used a CP filter on the second ( single frame ) image.
This will saturate the colours more.
I don't use this filter on panos because of the different effect the filter
will have at different angles to the sun.

2. The PP is slightly different.
I was looking for a darker, slight richer feel
to the second image.

Gorgeous images! Great job with the pano. I really like both, but the pano is extra special :D
