Uh, perhaps the horizon seems a degree or so off level on them? Could be the lens, however.

They are indeed purty:)! I do agree that the horizon on both of those needs to be fixed.

Did you use a tripod on these? I notice that the background city lights go "soft", as in you got focus on the foreground and had an aperture too wide to get the background crisp/sharp -- was that deliberate? Or compensation for a slow shutter speed?
