I tried to reply on that thread and was told I wasn't a member.Anyway, is it the fact .......
Congratulations, you are close enough to earn a free membership in the group but not dead on.. Do me a favor and edit out your answer here so others can give it a try.

Also tried to reply - even tho i don't feel I have the need for a free membership.But the one major comp-flaw I got a bit hung up about is that the horizont is leaning more than a certain tower...Maybe just me, but when photographing with the sea and the horizon as a background, it really should be level.
Sorry, that wasn't it. Try again.

In the top photo, the sun is high, and to the right out of frame. The shadows are consistant.
In the second, there are so many things wrong with the sun location, angle, resulting shadow ( especially the shadows ) and
the sky glow I'm not sure where to start ?

I spotted the mistake - they don't have any clothes on!
That's the best answer yet. You have won two free memberships to the group. I'm glad to see someone still has a sense of humor.
Now, if you were serious, consider one of your two memberships, withdrawn.

I'm interested in knowing what method you use to attaining a color match in your comps.
I don't. I'm just a snapshot-taker. Whatever colors are there, nature and the cameras provided.
I see.

As usual, Curt, you are right on target. You win. The problem with doing free work just for fun is that you do not pay the same attention to detail as you would, if it was billable hours.
