Lightbringer, yeah I think I'll go back to the first version and work from there. Turning the second version into something good is a bit too ambitious for me right now.

Othman, yes I am aware of the discrepancy between that, but for some reason I like it. I originally had it very dark and with blue colours, but I turned it into an orange picture and I liked it better for some reason.

horstenpeter,

- this might be a personal taste thing, but i think you should add a higher pitch of highlights to the thing.. everything is kind of globby right now.

as a test, make the entire image black and white, and blur your eyes. if it muds together, you've got a problem.. you should separate the lights and the darks.

- the legs of the businessmen are way too short.

that's generally it though.. i could nitpick the thing to death, but i won't. i love those colors

There is something about the first image that's darker, more oppressing than in the second one. I think it fits more with your theme. Stick with it
As for possible improvements, the one i can see from here is to use more blue tones for your shadows, not grey/black like you have now.
It will add contrast and depth to your picture.

nova, yes my values are pretty bad. Highlights are coming up. The legs will be gone soon since I'm returning to the first version (what a nice way of avoiding the problems of the second one )
Thanks for the comment !

ahw, yes I will Blues in the shadows are on my to-do list, didn't yet get around to doing it.
Thanks for the comment
