Harbour sunsets from Sunday

Here are some of the sunsets I took with my new lens on Sunday night. The new lens is a 12-60 mm.

I really like the colour in the first two shots and I also like the way you have captured the ripples in the water rather than smoothing them out with a long exposure , It gives the shots a really interesting effect .

Out of the three I think number one works the best for me .

Three cracking shots. The ripples in the water on the first two look like pixilated but the full size image on Flickr shows it isn't.

Love the skies, for me though I would have liked just a little bit longer exposure to see the darker scenery more. But saying that this screen of mine does show darker, my iphone shows it lighter.

Thanks for the comment but I had to recover the shadow detail to get what there is I was preserving highlighs with the exposure.
