Rio De Janeiro(now with working links!)

I've finally got around to doing something with the pictures i took on honeymoon in and around Rio last October.
i really regret not taking the camera out with me more, because i really dont think it was actually as dangerous as people made out, we met some fantastic people from the city while there and the press they get is a bit of a shame really.
Anyway heres a couple, theres more on my flickr if you fancy a look.
Comments always welome. I'll be adding more as the evening goes on.

Edit: Got there eventually!:D

Love the first one, gives the statue bit of an eerie feel

It works very well as it is. I think we are all tempted sometimes to tweak that little bit more. I'd leave it. It's excellent,

Thank valetnia...maybe i will then!

Very nice overall.I Love the first one,very atmospheric.I would probably just crop it a tiny bit at the bottom but fantastic photo.

Cheers everyone, ill try giving the top one a wee trim at the bottom.
Can anyone give me some idea's on the best way to add some clouds to the blue skies?

The first is just cracking.

I'm not sure about cropping the first one. I think the dark base gives a real feeling of power and weight to the statue.
