I like very much #1, The composition and the colors are great!!
#2 It is ok... To be a sunny day you got a lot of the detail in the statue, on the other hand you have a hard shadow in the right wind..... About the picture itself (theme) I can't make any realtion with this statue and a cemetry... Probably this is a cultural difference... It could be that in your country it is understandable that this statue is from a cemetery... but to me it isn't. I could find this angel in any park or roundabout in my country...

You've done an excellent job mate!
I love the vivid blues and the great perspective. Such a beatiful sight - having the statues and headstones against the backdrop of the sea...

Brilliant shots. I love the first one for its perspective on the land, sea, and sky.
