My wife disagrees with you, your picture is better. The Canon shot is too over exposed in the foreground and looks like it has been over sharpened for a misty scene.The sepia tone doesn't help the Canon image, neither does the large expanses top and bottom of sepia toned featureless cloud and what looks like builder's rubble due to the sharpening.
Apart from that given the difference in focal ranges of the lenses used and the complete inappropriateness of the entire scene for comparing sharpness, I'd just enjoy using excellent equipment to photograph beautiful scenery - at present I'm trying to figure out how I can take a week off work and just drive out of the city with the only goal of stopping to photograph anything interesting/beautiful/ugly (in a pleasant way) that I happen to see.
