Re: Which one? Why?
They are both very interestingly done and very impressive. Nice work.
I prefer the first. For composition. These exciting and varied shapes don't benefit from a centered formalism. The first has a good leading line, neat diagonals, and triangles and seems nicely dynamic to me. If the handling of light and dark for the first one were more along the lines of what you did for the second, it might be less somber and more fun.

Re: Which one? Why?
The first by far for the composition, rich colours, natural light and the way the rocks lead to the rocks on the horizon.
The 2nd is not my favourite image of yours but I'm not really sure why. Something about the rocks and the water in the 2nd image is different.
The first image is breathtakingly beautiful.

Re: Which one? Why?
Hi Murat,
I agree with Mark and Christina; #1 is my preferred composition - the only 'problem' for me is that it is quite low key (dim).
I'd like to see it brighter, the problem with that is that then it would be more obvious that the sea is brighter than the sky - an issue you avoided with #2.
Not sure if that helps,
