This is an interesting shot. The extremely bright moon could be toned down a bit, but the conflicting light sources add interest. I really like the way the moon's light comes off the water, and highlights the milky wash. You also have captured some nice texture in the wall. I would maybe clone out the bush that it just peeking out, but that's minor. Also, if the guy was turned just a bit this direction to get a little more profile (but still looking out) I think it would add to the image. I really like the mood of this shot.

This is a nice, moody image. The major issue here is of course the overexposed moon. You may be able to fix this in PS in several ways (one of which is using multiple layers and setting them to multiply. Or you can do it by burning/cloning. Worst case, grab a moon from another shot!

Other thoughts: the light on the subjects back is nice, but I wonder if the "watcher" theme would have more impact if more light were emphasized in front. E.g., next time take it where it's darker, expose for the moon, and then bracket some longer exposures to get the subjects face. Again, there may be some work you can do in PS that can achieve this without reshooting.
