Thanks, Bob! I'll play with the colors a bit when I have time, but this is very close to as I remember them--it was after sunset. That's also why they're noisy--ISO 1600, f/4 @ 1/10. If I had had a K-5 I would have shot at ISO 6400, but would have used the extra stops to boost the shutter speed, so the noise would have been about the same.

The composition is much better, more balanced, without losing the drama of the contrasting scales. The gondolier is a fantastic bonus. The picture is rather blue and noisy though. That liner docks here in Greenwich quite regularly - I think it's called The World, or something similar.
