I actually think I like the second one better, which might just be personal preference, because I think the foreground makes for an interesting composition - they're both well done, just different views. I think the horizon line works in the first one because the rocks break up what would otherwise have been a more noticeable straight line across almost the middle of water and sky. Beautiful photos.

this shot was taken just before the original one, which do you prefer?
Like you'll hear Bryan Peterson say in some of the tutorial videos posted on this site: "When is the best time to take a vertical? Right after you take the horizontal!"
Sure, there's a reason that shooting horizontally is often called "landscape" orientation, but sometimes a vertical shot gives a nice interesting spin on the shot. In this case I like them both but prefer the horizontal version.
i'm not exactly sure what your asking?
i was shooting at f/16 with the focus just before infinity, does that answer your question?
Yes it does, thank you.
