Ascending the Spinnaker Tower

So today we finally went up the Spinnaker Tower in Portsmouth, and picked a pretty good day to do so. Managed to get a few good photos, and then a few I wasn't sure what to do with.

Good ones:

Ones I wasn't sure what to do with post processing:

(thought it was quite a nice shot but wasnt sure what to do to make it stand out)

Wondering if anyone could give me some tips to try to pick out those reflections in post processing

Just not sure what to do

And finally some panoramics:

OK thanks, any suggestions of what to look for in a polarising filter, and the best place to buy them? And in the first photo by masts, do you mean the gaps in the glass?

Oh yeah, I forgot you got a polarising filter. Also do OcUK sell polarising filters? Otherwise it surely doesn't count as competitors if there is nothing to compete with.

Oh and in the photo with lots of reflections I meant it would be cool to enhance the reflections to show peoples expressions etc.

PFs can help but you need to preset the camera accordingly, as flat as possible then increase contrast in RAW to suit.

Kinda tricky with my trusty S3000

Also where is that picture taken from to be on eye level with the tower?
