    I like the sky in both shots that's for sure.
    I really like shot 1! There's a lot to look at and it all works imo. Nice job!

    I like 'em both but I love the one with the motorcycle. Not sure why but it seems that the motorcycle adds some real visual interest.

    That first shot is cool. Something I'll never see over here ... jetties covered with amphibious aircraft. Where is this?

    Thanks for all your comments. I'm definitely hoping to recapture the motorcycle shot, as handheld @ 400 iso doesn't seem optimal. Luckily I only live 10 minutes away from this stretch of road!

    This is Coal Harbour just on the outskirts of downtown Vancouver.

    Did you have a cross screen filter for the motorcycle shot? I think the headlight, with its' star pattern really makes the shot.

    No, it's just a normal UV filter. Is that causing the star pattern?

    If no star filter was used then it's most likely caused by using a reasonably high fstop. As the aperture closes up, the blades of the aperture mech form a star shape pattern of sorts and starbursts can be created.
