Both good shots, pretty Jumpers, and you got them pretty sharp. #2 is slightly underexposed by the looks of it, might have a colour cast as well, impossible for me to be sure without having been there when the shot was taken. #1 is the best of the 2, and I think it would do even better by simply rotating it 90ยบ clockwise :)

Don't worry about the number of replies, or the time it takes to get a reply. Members of POTN are from all over the world, and view posts at different times.
