Both good shots Billy. V1 is a good depiction of the Titanice lights. V2 can have the highlights toned down, and be straightened a little so that bright centre part is vertical.
Ive loaded a mod of V2.
Strange to think of the concept of Christmas Lights on a memorial to the dead.

An interesting building, Billy, and the patterns on the facade look great when lit up. I love that "butterfly" shape, and I think you did really well.
V1, for me, is more about the word "Titanic", the patterns and blue lights within it, with a part of the building included, to show where it is. It's obviously a lot more abstract than V2, but nicely depicted.
In my modification, I cropped some off both sides. I cropped the left in particular in order to remove the little bit of background showing there, making it even more abstract. I also added canvas to the bottom, as I felt the word was close to the bottom frame edge, also that the inclusion of more of the word's reflections would add a further dimension to its abstractness.
In my second modification, I again added canvas to the bottom, selected the bright centre column and toned it down a bit, then added canvas to the left side and removed the sign and lights there. I also removed the flares in the sky from the bottom right side.
Pamela.
