they are two very good photos and i would be
happy to have either as a photo on my wall at
home. They are also two very different photos
which makes it extremely difficult to choose.
In the end i feel the other photo is stronger
as it. Maybe if you had a tighter crop and
loss some of the foreground it might improve
the impact of the photo?
Wow, this is a really strong contest and it's
really difficult to me to vote. I've vote
this photo as a favourite, but the defender's
shot have an amazing mood. Both have a
classic composition, but one have cold
colours and one hot. I agree with Fantasma Doido , the crop could be better, but i want to
vote for your photo, i prefer the cold photo.
I like the composition but it is just too
cold and has a dark expression to it where as
the defenders pic relates me to hope and
strong will...lovely pic but the preference
for the defender is solely due to a personal
perspective..hope you do not mind....I like
the crop though...really puts the main
subject in limelight.....
I prefer this one, amazing shot of the
icebergs, nice light and contrasting
background. The defender is a great shot,
nice cliffs and tree, interesting detail, but
it is harder to get such an iceberg shot and
this appeals more for me.
I appreciate that this shot must have been
difficult to capture, and the darkness almost
works for me to bring out the cold feel, but
I prefer the dramatic, unexpected angle, use
of sepia and framing in the defender's shot. noneof100#5

the depth, contrast & composition of the defender's is stronger in my opinion...
from the angle shot, yours almost looks as if the horizon is lop sided...
