Both are very well done. I can't decide between the image with the moon showing, or the boats all lined up and colorful. Thanks for sharing.

I agree. Both are very nice.
I would, maybe, blur a tad the sky in the first one!

Both nice shots, brings back happy memories of my own time in the Cinque Terra - staying at Riomaggiore.

Thanks for the tip - I will try it. Of course, first I have to figure out how to do that, but that would be the Post Processing Forum. I don't know what I would do without the help of the knowledgable people here. Photoshop is not exactly intuitive.

my vote goes for #1 - like the composition. Did you add that noise or was it the camera?

I've just looked at the raw shot. It has plenty of noise. Here are the details:
20D, 17-40 f/4.0, ISO 200, f/19 @ 1/30 sec. I cropped off about 1/3 of the shot. I probably used DPP to convert the raw image. I don't think it has noise reduction. Sometimes I use RSE which does. I should have used it in this case. I also think running it thru Photoshop & saving for the web has made it worse.

Perhaps not the right forum for posting re-edits, but I tried to re-do shot #1 utilizing some of the advice offered above.

This is a slightly lighter version of #1 & not so much sharpening Thanks for looking & for the CC

The revised version is better I think. Maybe you could increase the saturation and contrast a little.
