Very nice, I prefer image #1

Very few details give away the century in which the shots were made.

This looks like elements from a series. I so, you may want to homogenize the looks. #2 seems to lack detail compared to #1, see for instance the garments of the guy in #1 compared to ##2. Maybe push sharpening and/or clarity a bit. Interesting geometry in both cases; the obliques in #2 are appealing.

Thanks Armando - I have learnt so much looking at your pictures over the years

Airy - thanks for feedback - I think I was looking at the tones rather than details. The first was slightly cropped but with 12Mp there was not a lot of headroom and more chance of grain etc - I think sharpening was more noticeable - I will go back and have another play. Didn't think of them as part of a series and homogenizing the look - hence thanks again.
