Just looking for some feedback on these 2 shots.....shots taken with my new Sigma 10-20mm lens.

Not really much to critique...I think they are both strong compostionally, but I think the first is more dramatic. The people on the bridge bug me a little though. I would like it more with them either gone or if they were adding some dynamic to the image.

I agree. No C&C really needed. Bridges seem to be a popular subject with these lenses. Gee! Was the sky really that blue?

I guess the only criticism I can offer is that you've now made me want one of these lenses

Great shots! Love the composition, and you've chosen the perfect time of day to shoot- sky is really nice colour. Nothing but kudos here.

Great shots, but I can´t stop thinking the first one as a poster, cropped from where the building starts.

nice

My only comment on the first one is that everything lines up until the bottom where you're off centre which throws off the balance for me.
